Ever hear of this wood? A google search comes up with nothing at all.

spelled the same as the lumberyard...)
Or?

As you noted, there is no information out there.
Maybe that means there is something wrong with the wood.

Well, if it is in a lumber yard it won't be Cassia fistula.
Try Peltophorum dubium.

Doesn't look like a lot of information out there. If you go to
<http://www2.fpl.fs.fed.us:8080/tilia/StartRunPublicQuery.do?query=_common_names_22aug2003_001&type=browser>
and plug in "canafisto" you'll get a few hits--appears to be of genus
cassia and any of several species. You may get more hits searching on
those names.
