Top pic is Oak
Middle pic looks like Oak
Bottom pic might be a type of Oak but I dont know which species of Oak has plates for outer bark. That is a characteristic of Honey locust and some hickories.
Is this all from one tree or are you unsure?

White Oak.
Split, stack and forget for a couple years at least. All Oak has those light-colored lines radiating from the center (medullary rays,) sometimes hard to see.

its been dead and down since sandy.. just started to buck it today. it only reads 30% on mm. seems kind of low for oak. maybe i got lucky for a change. hopefully its good for 2015/16. the wood looks like oak, but the bark thew me off.
Yeah, thats true, I do have a white oak by my pond that looks like a shagbark hickory.White Oak.
White Oak. You can see the medullary rays in the second photo. They are the light colored rays extending from the center of the wood toward the edges. Only oak has them.The bark in the third picture confirms it is White Oak. In the first photo the dark heartwood also looks characteristically like oak. Although I am not sure what the small, dark 'dashed line' marks are called, they are characteristic of oak.

Ditto. Got a ton of them. The bigger they get the more they have the shagbark look
That's about the right reading, problem with oak is that next 10% takes a long time.
