I am looking for sources of information about traditional southern timber framing techniques. The house frames I have seen down here in Georgia are different than what I read about from New England. I find large hewn sills, corner principle posts often hewn to an "L" shaped cross section, sawn studs morticed into the plate and sill, braces down from corner posts to sills, common rafters, etc. All first growth southern yellow pine (Heart Pine), including the pegs.
I have found very little information on this framing style. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
