Ponto Baggins was a Hobbit of the Shire.
History[edit]
Ponto was the eldest son of Posco Baggins and Gilly Brownlock and was named after his great-grandfather, Ponto. He was the father of Angelica and they attended the Birthday Party together.[1]
After Frodo Baggins left the Shire in S.R. 1422, Ponto became the head of the Baggins Family, though in title only, as Bag End had passed to Samwise Gamgee.[2]
