James ("Flum") Branham (1927-1993) was William Branham's brother. He died of lung cancer due to smoking. James was born long after the Branham family migrated from Kentucky to Indiana, and would not have been part of the nine siblings in the log cabin that William Branham used for his campaign literature. By the time James was born, William Branham was approximately 20 years old, and the Branham family had lived in Jeffersonville for approximately seventeen years.
