Marine5068, the drawing you posted looks a lot like my tree's leaves.

Since posting my question, it was also suggested that this might be a Sycamore Maple.
Some of the photos of the Sycamore Maple seem to support that suggestion also.

Could be a Sycamore Maple Hybrid (Acer Pseudoplatanus)
which is an invasive species that has been cultivated in USA from Europe and Asia back in the 1500's
 
The only two Maples I can think of that have rounded lobes like that are Field Maple (Acer campestre) and Florida Maple (Acer floridanum). My guess would be the second based on your location.
I'm kind of thinking it's not a sycamore Maple because leaves aren't really bang on but leaves are wrong for Field Maple. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acer_campestre ) and for Florida Maple.
I would say it's either a Red Maple Or some hybrid species.
