Paper 1: William M. Branhams Middle Name Was Marrion William M. Branham's real middle name? At least that's what he claimed. Most people knew him only as Brother Branham, but at a certain point in time, his middle name took on a veritable eschatological significance. But can this middle name also be verified by early official documents? Paper 2: When Jack T. Moore supported Avak Hakobian Among researchers of William Branham, it is well known that he met the Armenian faith healer Avak Hakobian in Miami Beach, Florida, in February 1948. The influence that this meeting had on Branham has also been the subject of much discussion. However, it was previously unknown that Branham's manager, Jack T. Moore, had actively supported Hakobian, even writing a letter to the immigration authorities to extend his stay in the US. The author was astonished to discover this document amongst the 1,300 pages of material that he had requested from the US immigration authorities.
