No leaves for help.
Pic 1 and 2 same log.
Pic 3&4;same log.
I think pic 5 is elm since it's impossible to split by hand.
Thanks!

I agree- the first two look like Oak. I'll take a pass on 3 and 4. #5 looks like birch to me too- those look like yellow belly sap sucker holes to me.
 
1&2;no clue, but looks like it's starting to rot or get punky
3&4;looks like Bur Oak I have in my yard. Does it smell like Oak?
5 looks like Lombardi Poplar
 
My $.02

First is pin oak

Next looks like norway maple to me, but I've never cut sassafras so I'm not familiar with it.

No guess on the last one.
