Looks like a serviceberry to me. Check out http://www.bhg.com/gardening/plant-dictionary/tree/serviceberry/.

I check it out Mary Anderson and maybe be the Cumulus Allegheny. My grand daughter brought it to us 3 years ago the school gave it to her and said it was a dogwood but after the 1st year we know it wasn't... thank you

Appears to be a wild plum.

I agree with Mary. It does look like serviceberry. I have a friend that has several and they look the same.

Are the berries white? I don't think the leaf is right for a serviceberry. It looks like a Gray's dogwood to me (Cornus racemosa). If the bark turns red in the winter it is likely Cornus sericea.

to my knowledge, service berry tree flowers have 5 petals, not 4 right? I think Doug hit it on the head with the "Gray's dogwood", looks like the exact 4 petal flower with large stamens. Also, the drooping leaves are an indication of Gray's dogwood and many other dog woods trees.

Looks an awful lot like Seven Son Flower - Heptacodium.
