Fourth Age 63 (abbreviated to Fo.A. 63 or F.O.) is the 63rd year of the Sun of the Fourth Age of Middle-earth. Unless otherwise stated, Tolkien Gateway follows Shire usage in Appendix B for reckoning Fourth Age years: Fourth Age 63 was also known as S.R. 1484 in Shire-reckoning.
Notable events in this year include:
Spring
- Meriadoc Brandybuck receives a message from King Éomer that he wishes to see him.[1]
- Meriadoc takes councel with Peregrin Took; they leave their belongings to their sons and depart the Shire from Sarn Ford into the south.[1]
- Faramir Took I succeeds his father Peregrin Took as Thain of the Shire.[1]
Autumn
- Death of King Éomer.[1][note 1]
- Elfwine, son of Éomer, becomes the nineteenth King of Rohan.[1][note 1]
