What kind of tree did this leaf come from?

So what tree did this leaf come from? I have a feeling that it's from an American chestnut which would be awesome because all the trees in that area were mature and no dead trees were there.

That is what it looks like

That looks like a chestnut oak, not an American chestnut. Cool tree, nonetheless.

X2  The lobes of an American chestnut are pointed not round.

I was going with the length, I thought the american was long where the oak was short and round

Never knew there was a species called chestnut oak but now that i see it, that's what it looks like. Makes sense because all the ridges and higher land is covered in white oaks, which is where i found it.
