K. D. Snyder appears as "Kelon D. Snider" in the 1850 U.S. Census and on his 1851 Forsyth County, NC, marriage record. He is enumerated as "Kelen D. Snyder" on the 1880 U.S. Census. In 1860 and 1870, he is simply "K. D. Snider."
Kehlin's son, Meredith Pinxton Snyder, was 4-time Mayor of Los Angeles, so Kehlin's name appears alternately as "K. D. Snyder" or "Kehlin D. Snyder" in a few articles on Meredith as well as on Meredith's death certificate. The two places his name is spelled out as "Kehlin D. Snyder" are Who's Who in the Pacific Southwest, The Times Mirror Printing and Binding House, Los Angeles, 1913, p. 344 ("Meredith P. Snyder"), and Who's Who in America, The A. N. Marquis Company, Chicago, Vol. 15 (1928-1929), p. 1942 ("Meredith Pinxton Snyder").
The death certificate of Kehlin's daughter, Clora Isabelle (Snyder) Mendenhall records her name (misspelled) as Clara Isabella Mendenhall and her father's name as "Khlen Snyder." Clora also named one of her children "Khlen." (submitted by MT)
