Can only provide this photo as tree is located on a secure facility and no cameras are allowed. Actually took me awhile to just get the sample. What is it?

Looks like a type of Hickory to me, guessing maybe a pig nut.

Nope, members of the Carya Genus have oppositely opposed leaves laid out much farther apart. Five bunched together is buckeye.

Ebony is a Genus of trees with very black wood.... Gaboon ebony is the most commonly used wood for making fore end tips on wood stocks. Persimmon has coal black heartwood, but not much of it. The sap wood is very white.

Persimmon is extremely hard and heavy,, like black ebonies. It is used for making wood golf club heads. I saw a floor made of it at a golf country club and it was incredible.
