== Early life ==
William Brackney is the second son of Samuel Harp Brackney and Mildred Braisted Pointer and attended Gabriel DuVal Senior High School in Glenn Dale, Maryland. His mother was of Methodist heritage; his father came from a line of Quakers; the two parents determined upon a Baptist orientation because of the outreach of a neighborhood congregation. The family’s early years blended Southern Baptist and Northern (American) Baptist outlooks. William matriculated in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Maryland (College Park) with a scholarship to do astrophysics. In 1967 he was admitted to the honors program in history and he defended a thesis in economic history, for which he received a BA (honors) degree.
He next completed an MA in Religion from The Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Philadelphia in 1972.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=William H. Brackney )〕 in Philadelphia in 1972, being awarded a prize for his thesis in Patristic Evidences. He received a second MA from Temple University in Philadelphia, after which he earned the Doctor of Philosophy〔 (with distinction), his dissertation topic being “Religious Antimasonry: The Genesis of a Political Party” in 1976. Mentors for his doctoral work at Temple included F. Ernest Stoeffler (Religion) and Joseph G. Rayback (History). He earned a Certificate in Modern Archives Administration from the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration in 1979. Throughout this period, Brackney served in leadership roles in Baptist and United Methodist churches in Texas, Pennsylvania, Washington, DC, and New York. He was ordained a Baptist minister in 1971, an elder in the United Methodist Church in 1976, and he carried recognition in the Wesleyan Church for a number of years, resulting from his appointment at Houghton College. Early in his career, he intentionally related to multiple denominational streams through his ministerial pursuits.
