Representative James Thomas Begg

James Thomas Begg (born February 16, 1877) was a Republican politician who represented Ohio in the United States House of Representatives in the early twentieth century. Serving as a member of Congress from Ohio’s 13th District, he held office as a U.S. Representative for a full decade, from May 19, 1919, to March 3, 1929. Over the course of his congressional service, Begg completed five terms in the House.

During his tenure, Representative Begg served as part of Ohio’s Republican delegation at a time of significant national change following World War I. Although specific committee assignments and legislative initiatives are not listed in the available record, his decade-long presence in Congress indicates sustained support from his constituents in the 13th District. After leaving office in 1929, he was regarded as a former member of Congress from Ohio.
