I'm 90% sure that there's a lot of Boontling in Pynchon's novel _Vineland_, set in northern CA, though I haven't seen a full glossary. This one doesn't mention it, but as I recall, a "Wheeler" is a tall tale, and the protagonist has that last name--possibly a coincidence, but I remember having found a few others as well.
