Default Tree identification help needed

We have this tree on our property and would appreciate help to identify
what kind this is. I looked in the books and couldn't figure it out:

The thin appearing bark makes me think of the local hackberry trees here in
central Texas. Yet, when I do some research on that species, the hackberry
does not have a range in Texas either. So, I'm more confused now.
