Hi, Ngoni,
Check out:
Hanna, P. R., J. S. Hanna, R. E. Hodges & E. H. Rudorf (1966). Phoneme-
grapheme correspondences as cues to spelling improvement. Washington,
DC: U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare.
A large book with lots of data as per the title, and a very thorough
introductory part, which you need to read to understand the listings, but
which rewards the effort. It's mostly arranged, though, in 'sound' order,
so each segment of each word would be listed in a different place, normally.
Still, it's pretty easy to use, though for your purposes it will be a tad
more difficult than if you just wanted examples of the sounds in different
parts of the word. Worth at least a look. Given the date, a digital
version may be nonexistent.
