Milo Burrows was a hobbit of the Shire.
History[edit]
Milo was a grandson of Gorbadoc Brandybuck of Buckland, who married into the Baggins Family when he wedded Peony, and a nephew of both Bilbo and Frodo Baggins. They had four children - Mosco, Moro, Myrtle and Minto - and all of the family was present at Bilbo's famous Birthday Party.[1]
Milo was known for his habit of failing to reply to letters, and because of this he was one of those that found a specially selected gift waiting for him in Bag End, after Bilbo's departure: a golden inkpot and pen.[2]
Portrayal in adaptations[edit]
1990: The Lord of the Rings: Volume 1:
- A Hobbit named Milo warns Frodo of wolves that are about in the Shire.
2002: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (video game):
- Milo Burrows, voiced by an uncredited Michael Reisz, lives at Number 4, Bagshot Row. He expresses pleasure that Frodo is no longer associating with "Elves and Wizards", causing Frodo to politely make his excuses and leave.
