Indeed, this is true. There have been several discussions regarding the materials used for the chinking in that; a) the materials at the time the Babb family built varied a bit in the immediate area, at least as far as we can tell by research, consultation with historians who are home and preservation experts, and archeologists, b) the decision on how to present the house was heavily discussed and, though leaning towards emphasis on the early 19th century, the home was occupied for well over a century after that, so some decisions were made that will allow a presentation of the evolution of both its home and its use as an interpretive tool and heritage site, and c) there are some building code/insurance/governing body restrictions that apply based on the way we are doing the project and the plans for its use. They might not apply if the home were being reconstructed and preserved in a different way, or if the home had been in a different situation before the deterioration, but they definitely do in this case.

All these factors must be considered when determining materials to be used and making decisions regarding re-construction. It has been an interesting experience for historians. I hope we can produce a paper chronicling both the historical arguments and the process itself and make it available for others.

Chinking is the material put between the logs to fill the gaps intentionally left in several styles of log home construction. Back in early times, chinking was made from moss, mud, clay and even buffalo dung.
