During this hike I noticed that the understory is dominated by Hornbeam and Gray Dogwood. These 2 photos are of Hornbeam. The tree does not grow large and the bark is shredy.
The wood of this tree is hard, seeds grow in a bladder that rattles. Children probably used them as toys. The leaves resemble elm leaves.
