In 1921 Bragg and his family, now also including two young daughters, Neva Pauline/Polly and Lorraine Agnes Bragg (both born in Washington, D.C. on October 14, 1917 & March 10, 1919, respectively), came to California, where Paul was again employed by the YMCA. Son, Robert Elton, was born in Los Angeles County on March 25, 1922. It is unknown how long Bragg stayed with the Los Angeles YMCA, but in 1922 he was in charge of the Physical Education Department at San Luis Obispo High School, and in 1924 he was a physical education teacher at Redondo Union High School, Redondo Beach, California.
