Hello, first post on the forum but have been a guest and learning for awhile now. Chose my new stove based on many of the opinions & reviews on this forum. Was hoping I could get a little help with some species ID. Appreciate any help you guys could offer, thanks. Pics are in groups of 3. 1-3 same wood. 4-6 same wood, etc. Typically scrounging at a dump site so no leaves or anything else to go by.

Last group is boxelder. The first two groups look like good wood but don’t look familiar to me.
 
1-3: black locust
4-6: sassafras
7-9: boxelder
 
Thank you for the help. Was on the same track with the first two sets but had never seen the third set before. Appreciate it. Will have to just mix in the BE.
 
Get more of the heavy barked yellowish green wood (Black Locust). The orange stuff may be mulberry. Also good stuff.
