His name was listed William Lewis Bracchi on his WW I and WW II Draft Registration cards, to which he signed his name (William L. Bracchi), implying that was correct. It was also William Lewis Bracchi in the California Death Index.
On his son John's baptism certificate he was listed as William Louis Bracchi.
In the early 1980's I located my grandfather's former ranch property on south side of Piute Mountain and saw that the deteriorated floor of the cabin was still there and Bracchi Spring was still running, even in the autumn of that drought year.
