    The other looks like Chinese elm.

    Thanks for the info and quick responses.

    When I look up images for the two trees, the first tree pictured does seem to match the Chinese Elm description.

    The hackberry trees don't seem to have that sort of canopy so not sure if that is correct or not. Of course I'm going off Google Images which isn't very accurate. If anyone has any other thoughts or can confirm this then please let me know.

    The last picture shows hackberry leaves. There are about 60 species in the genus.

    The hackberry leaves seem a good match for Chinese Hackberry, Celtis sinensis.
