Recovering timber from bush fire affected trees

Hi, Our property was badly hit by the bush fires in South Australia in January this year. Over the years we have planted a lot of medium sized Callitris and Allocasuarina trees which were scorched and killed by the radiation. Some of the trunks are 10" to 13" in diameter and very straight. Does anyone have experience in felling and using such timber? I think my best option is to fell them, cut into usable (say 3m) lengths, seal the cut ends and see if they dry out. Should I attempt to mill into planks whilst freshly felled? I intend on buying a moisture meter to monitor their progress.
