His first name was spelled as Elmar on his death certificate, but as Elymar on his wife's death certificate, and as Elymas on the 1900 census. Birth records for his children listed him as E. A. Talkington, but one of his sons was named Elymas Howard Talkington (per his SSDI record and death certificate). Given that his son's name was unusual, as was his, Elymas is probably the correct spelling of his first name.
