Fourth Age 2 (abbreviated to Fo.A. 2 or F.O.) is the 2nd 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 2 was also known as S.R. 1423 in Shire-reckoning.
Notable events in this year include:
- Birth of Frodo Gardner, second child and first son of Samwise Gamgee and Rose Cotton.[1]
- Death of Adelard Took.[2]
