James Stephen "Big Jim" Hogg (March 24, 1851 March 3, 1906) was a Texas lawyer and statesman, and the Governor of Texas. He was born near Rusk, Texas. Hogg was a follower of the conservative New South Creed which became popular following the U.S. Civil War. He was also associated with populism. Hogg is often remembered for naming his daughter Ima Hogg, an odd name which derived from a poem written by James' brother, Thomas Elisha Hogg. The rumor that she had a sister named "Ura" is an urban legend.
