Holman Greenhand left no descendants, and so was the last of the Greenhand family. Apart from his date of birth, we have little definite information about him, but certain clues suggest that he retired from gardening in about III 2961 at the age of sixty-nine. If he lived a typical Hobbit lifespan, he would probably have survived for about another thirty years after that date, hence the estimate above of about III 2990 as the last date a Greenhand was extant.
