I'd bet that there is no such source...at least not a single convenient source. To accomplish this I think you need to do research, so your staff might be a knowledgeable team getting the scoop on local pronunciations and wordings and usage...or you do the research yourself. The sources would be interviews with local people, printed matter, even internet souces.
