Early years
The daughter of Harry Clay Pendleton (1874–1961), a building contractor, and Nettie (née Coward) Deacon Pendleton (1898–1964), Patricia Bragg was raised in Piedmont, California, attending both grammar school and high school there. She graduated from the Mary Wallace School, a private Piedmont high school for girls, in June 1947. Her parents divorced on October 1, 1938, (Alameda County, CA Action No. 135796) after a separation of several years. The most recently released Federal Census (1940) shows Patricia Pendleton, at age 10, residing with her mother, Nettie, and two brothers on Pala Avenue in Piedmont, Alameda County, California.
After high school, she attended the University of California, Berkeley for two years , but did not graduate (Cal-Berkeley Alumni database). In an interview with Marilyn McMahon, staff writer, published in the Santa Barbara News-Press on March 8, 2011, Bragg claimed she graduated from that institution with a "bachelor's degree in biochemistry." In the same interview, Bragg stated that her mother died at age 45 in an automobile accident. This confuses the reader because an obituary has been found that says something different. Nettie Pendleton's Oakland Tribune obituary of July 30, 1964, reads ("Mrs. Pendleton, whose death followed a brief illness, is survived by a daughter, Patricia Pendleton Bragg, of Hollywood; and two sons, Harry C. Pendleton, Jr., of Oakland, and Herbert Coward Deacon...." [son by a prior marriage]). Her death certificate documents her cause of death as "Cerebral Metastasis due to Carcinoma L [left] Lung" on July 29, 1964, at age 65. (State of California Certificate of Death ?-0860ll).
On April 19, 1952, Patricia Pendleton and Robert E. Bragg (1922–1993) were married at the First Presbyterian Church of Phoenix, Phoenix, Arizona, . They later divorced, in 1957, in Los Angeles County, California. Prior to & following their divorce proceedings, Bragg assisted her former father-in-law, Paul C. Bragg, with his health crusades, and later appeared on his "Health & Happiness" TV show. The show ran from September 1959 to an unknown date on Channel 9, KHJ-TV, in the Los Angeles, CA, area. She also is the attributed co-author of many of the later Bragg health books.
Second marriage
On March 31, 1976, Patricia Bragg, stating her father's name as "Paul C. Bragg" and her mother's maiden name as "Nettie Coward," her birth date as "April 29, 1946," her age as "30," and that this was her "first marriage" on the Application for Marriage License, married James Cameron Gilroy (1954–1977) in Tujunga, California. They divorced 5 months later, and Gilroy died the following July 1, 1977, at age 22 under unknown circumstances. His death certificate, on which his mother is identified as the "informant," gave his last occupation as "Sales Mgr....Live Foods...Health Vitamins".
