*Henry TAUNTON's bible records this daughter once as Izora Amerlia Elizabeth TAUNTON, twice as Izora A. E. TAUNTON, and once as Ellen TAUNTON. The name on her tombstone is inscribed as Izora Ellen SPEAKE. Children of Thomas Marion SPEAKE, Sr. began using the surname SPEAKS after 1917. Entries in Henry TAUNTON's bible first record the spelling SPEAKE, then SPEAKES and finally SPEAKS.
