<p>62.215.3.45: </p> <hr /> <div>'''Paladin Took II''' was the thirty-first [[Thain]] of the [[Shire]] was [[Ferumbras Took III]], who was unmarried and left no heir. As such, the line of descent from the [[Old Took]]'s third son [[Isumbras Took IV|Isumbras IV]] came to an end, and the descent moved on to the line of his fourth son, [[Hildigrim Took|Hildigrim]]. So the [[Thain|Thainship]] fell on Hildigrim's grandson Paladin, who became Thain '''Paladin II'''.<br /> <br /> At some point, it seems that Hildigrim or one of his descendants had moved a little away from the ancestral home of the [[Took family|Tooks]] at [[Great Smials]]. Paladin was a farmer who worked the lands around [[Whitwell]] - a village which, though it appears on no map, is known to have been close to [[Tuckborough]] in the western [[Green Hills]].<br /> <br /> When [[Lotho Sackville-Baggins]] attempted his takeover of the [[Shire]], Paladin came into his own. As the legitimate Thain, he refused to accept Lotho's authority, and when Lotho's ruffians were found in the [[Tookland]], they were hunted and shot. So the Tookland remained independent while Lotho and later [[Sharkey]] took<br /> 5B4<br /> over the running of the rest of the Shire. A hundred of Paladin's archers marched to the [[Battle of Bywater]] and helped to defeat [[Sharkey's Men]], but Paladin himself does not seem to have been at the battle.<br /> <br /> Paladin was married to [[Eglantine Banks]], and together they had four children. The eldest three were daughters, [[Pearl Took|Pearl]], [[Pimpernel Took|Pimpernel]] and [[Pervinca Took|Pervinca]], but the youngest was a son. This was the famous [[Peregrin Took]], who travelled with the [[Fellowship of the Ring]], and would inherit Paladin's title to become Thain [[Peregrin Took I|Peregrin I]].<br /> <br /> [[Category:Took]]<br /> [[Category:Hobbits]]</div>
