    Thomas J. Bragg's birth record gives his name as Thomas Baldwin Bragg. Athough the date and location would seem to indicate the birth record is for this Thomas, the difference between the middle initial and middle name introduces the possibility that they are different people. Additional evidence to support Thomas Brigg's parentage would be ideal.
