Ken, I think it is "Puncheon" which is a heavy thick, wide piece of wood smoothed and flattend on one side. More of what we refer to as rough cut lumber with one smooth side. My understanding of the use of the word. When I was a kid we would hear the phrase, "We lit a schuck and got the heck out of there". Like you say they probably soaked them for use as a torch in the old days. Sure wouldn`t want to light one around here in this dry, fire prone area we live in during the summer.
