What kind of tree?

[Sep]

The tree is about 85 feet tall with thorns and leaves like a honey locust, but it has a groved bark that I would describe as being between an elm and a silver maple. Any gueses would help.
Thanks Sep

Try a pic would help. Look up black locust of Washington hothron, but a pic would do great.

I would have to say Black locust also. Are the twigs somewaht dry and odory? What leaf pattern does it have?

Pics are the only true way to answer this though.

honeylocust (Gleditsia) leaves are pointed, black locust (Robinia) leaves are rounded.
