(TA 2880-2982) Hobbit of the Shire, only son of Hildigrim Took – whom in turn was the fourth child of the famous Old Took. Adalgrim himself had four children, Paladin Took and 3 unnamed daughters. During most of Adalgrim’s lifetime, the Thain of the Shire was his first cousin Ferumbras III. However, Ferumbras never married, and after his death the inheritance of the Thainship passed by circuitous routes through Hildigrim’s line of descent. If Adalgrim had survived his cousin, he would have became Thain himself, but as events unfolded, it was his son Paladin who inherited the title to become Thain Paladin II. In time the Thainship passed on to Adalgrim’s grandson, the famous Peregrin Took.
