@kjhsscioly, I thought you made the thread. Anyways, let's start off with an easy one:
1. What tree is known for being the tallest in the world and where is it found?

Haha, there is more than one sequoia (it is a genus). Which one? Also, I think it would be best to use hide tags for answering the questions.

Giant Sequoia
Which I would like to point out is not on the National List (now posted on official site)...

No, I think it's Sequoia semiperverens, coast redwood.
What is the oldest tree ever found?

Jurupa oak, 13,000 years
or the norway spruce, which is more well known, at 9000 years

I'm not sure if I phrased this corrrectly, but the oldest individual tree ever found, not a clonal colony.
And the oldest colony is Quaking Aspen, which is, believe it or not, more than 80,000 years old.

You are correct.
