What is this?

How do I transplant/promote it to grow in other areas?

I have this plant on my place in a few areas, but they are all the same sort of location. Areas near a stream in wooded yet partially open areas where it gets some light. The soil is typically damp. It produces a white "flower" if you will. The deer seem to browse it some as well. I tend to not have many "shrubs" so something that grows on my place is grossly appreciated..... This one is 10 feet across and that high as well. The lower limbs don;t seem to have leaves, but not because from deer browse, but just naturally (maybe a lack of light). It's not a sumac that I am familiar with.....
