'''Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, née [[Bracegirdle]]''' ([[Third Age|T.A.]] 2918 - 3020, died aged 102) was the second child, and only daughter, of [[Primrose Bracegirdle|Primrose Boffin]] and [[Blanco Bracegirdle]]. <br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Lobelia was a renowned character of [[the Shire]], she married [[Bilbo]]'s cousin [[Otho Sackville-Baggins]], and they had one child together, [[Lotho Sackville-Baggins|Lotho]], who was born in [[Shire Reckoning|S.R.]] 1364.<ref name="Bag"/><br />
<br />
Her envy of [[Bag End]] was well-known,<ref>[[J.R.R. Tolkien]], ''[[The Hobbit]]'', "[[The Return Journey]]"</ref> she could not wait to inherit it, and was furious when [[Bilbo Baggins|Bilbo]] made [[Frodo Baggins|Frodo]] his heir. However, when Frodo left for [[Rivendell]] he sold Bag End to Lobelia, but unfortunately Otho had died by then.<ref>[[J.R.R. Tolkien]], ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'', ''[[The Fellowship of the Ring]]'', "[[A Long-expected Party]]"</ref> <br />
<br />
During [[The War of the Ring]], Lobelia was imprisoned in [[Lockholes]] for arguing with the [[Chief]]'s Men, and attacking one of them with an umbrella. When she came out, Lobelia was popular for the first time for bravely standing up to the [[Saruman]]'s [[Men]]. However, she was crushed to find out her son had died whilst she was in prison.<br />
<br />
After the War of the Ring, Lobelia returned to her home village of [[Hardbottle]] to live with the other [[Bracegirdle]]s, giving Bag End to Frodo. When she died, she gave her money to Frodo to be used to help [[hobbits]] left homeless by Saruman and her son.<ref name="Grey">[[J.R.R.
