Michael - I found an old steel Schwinn fork on e-bay. It was probably for a a 27" wheel and had a flat crown to replace a sloping crown, which worked for me because I was looking to gain clearance for Jack Browns.
I just tried it with a 650B wheel and a Tektro 556 - no dice. The build height on the fork is 382mm. A 375 would probably work. Good luck!
