Default Need to ID a Pear tree....

Several years back, I picked up a Pear tree to replace one that my folks had
cut down many more years back. I planted him and he's growing decent, but
he's yet to fruit and he's been in the ground a good 6 years now. The tree
does not flower either.

This was my first foray into a fruit bearing tree and I know it takes a few
years to get fruit, but 6 years seems long enough. I'm starting to think I
may have a non-fruit bearing variety (in spite of what the tag said).

SO, I'd like to ID the variety to confirm whether it is a fruiting or
non-fruiting type. I can take photos to post in the binaries group but
wanted to touch base here first to see what in particular I need to focus on
in the pics so we can definitively ID it.

Suggestions?
