Hello Alice and Jerry... According to my kinship calculator then we're cousins... My line of Braggs descended from Anne Neville (John Mauzy's and Lucy's sister) who married Thomas Blakemore. They had (among others) a dau named Lucy Neville Blakemore who married Thomas Bragg. Lucy Neville Blakemore and Thomas Bragg had a son John Blakemore Bragg. John Blakemore Bragg married Lucinda Crump and had a son named Thomas Churchill (or Churchville) Bragg who fought in the Northern army in the Civil War. Thomas is buried in Ava (Douglas County), MO. Thomas C. Bragg married Elizabeth Amy L. Carter and had a son Daniel Bragg. Daniel Bragg had a son named William who had (among others) twin sons named James and John. John Bragg (b. March 6, 1901, Douglas Cty, MO) was my grandfather. The family moved to Nodaway County (northwest MO) before WWI and that's where my father Robert Bragg was born. (William and his oldest son moved on to California during the dustbowl years of the depression and never returned) That's the long and short of it.
