'''? 28 May 1965''' is a [[Letters not published in "The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien"|letter]] from [[J.R.R.

*'''Description:''' A young girl from New Zealand had written to Tolkien "''a letter about genealogy and hobbit recipes for cooking rabbits, Tolkien's secretary wrote back a nice reply and Tolkien personally added a few lines and signed the letter''".<ref name=Flavin>{{webcite|author=Richard Flavin|articleurl=http://www.flavinscorner.com/tolkienletter.htm|articlename=Tolkien Letter|dated=|website=[http://www.flavinscorner.com/ Flavin's Corner]|accessed=14 June 2012}}</ref><br />
*'''Publication:''' The letter is mentioned by [[Christopher Tolkien]] in ''[[The Peoples of Middle-earth]]'': <br />
<br />
"''On one of his copies of the First Edition he added to the genealogy of the Tooks (Fredegar's mother being Rosamunda Took) 'Estella' as the sister of Fredegar and her birth-date 1385; and to the Brandybuck genealogy he added to Meriadoc's '= Estella Bolger 1385', noting beside this that he had told a correspondent in 1965 that 'I believe he married a sister of Fredegar Bolger of the Bolgers of Budgeford'. These corrections, for a reason unknown to me, were not incorporated in the Allen and Unwin Second Edition, but they did occur in a later impression of the Ballantine edition of 1966, and hence Estella Bolger and her marriage to Merry Brandybuck are entered in The Complete Guide to Middle-earth by Robert Foster.''<br />
<br />
''These additions to the family trees were made at the instance of Douglas A. Anderson in the Houghton Mifflin edition of 1987, to which he contributed a note on the history of the text. Estella Bolger and her marriage to Meriadoc have finally entered the British 'tradition' in the re-set edition published by HarperCollins in 1994 (see Douglas Anderson's 'Note on the text' in this edition, p. xii).''"<ref>{{PM|III}}, p. 117 (note 1)</ref><br />

==Excerpt==<br />
[Tolkien's added lines:]<br />
<poem><br />
I believe he married a sister of <br />
Fredegar (Fatty) Bolger, but I <br />
will look into the matter. I have some <br />
records of the family of the Bolgers of Budgeford, <br />
whose lands were not far from Buckland, but they were <br />
for lack of space not included. J. R. R. Tolkien<br />
