Ima, yes; Ura, no (see <http://members.aol.com/taylorteri/Imahogg.html>). 
She was a powerful cultural force during a long life (1882-1975).  Her
father,
Gov. Jim Hogg, was one of the two or three best governors Texas has had
(and, when you think of Ma and Pa Ferguson, "Nose-Picking" Price Daniel
and--perhaps--the current incumbent, you're grateful for people like him), a

real progressive-era hero.  Oil didn't come along until much later (he died
in
1906).  Miss Ima and one of her brothers ran the Hogg Foundation, a great
benefactor of the University of Texas.  You can see her house, Bayou Bend,
now part of the Houston Museum of Fine arts, at
<http://mfah.org/bayou.html>.
