The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗Bragg City was originally named Owl City, and under the latter name was laid out in 1894 when the railroad was extended to that point. Another early variant name was "Clayroot". A post office called Clayroot was established in 1911, and the name was changed to Bragg City in 1917. The present name honors W. G. Bragg, the original owner of the site.
