Abbreviated genealogy showing the descent of Samwise Gamgee from Hamfast of Gamwich and Holman the greenhanded.
Abbreviated genealogy showing the descent of Rose Cotton (the wife of Sam Gamgee) from Holman the greenhanded and Cottar. The full descent of this family can be found in Appendix C to The Lord of the Rings. Abbreviated genealogy showing the descent of Samwise Gamgee from Hamfast of Gamwich and Holman the greenhanded. One of the genealogical charts included with the Red Book, showing the history of the Gamgee and Cotton families, and the emergence of their descendants the Fairbairns and the Gardners. The tree traces the families back to three important figures: Hamfast of Gamwich (from whose descendants the name 'Gamgee' would originate), Holman the greenhanded (who began the gardening tradition of the family), and Cottar (from whom the Cottons would descend). The earliest of these three was Hamfast of Gamwich, who was born in 1160 by the Shire-reckoning (or III 2760, the year after the Long Winter). The chart shows Hamfast's descendants through five generations down to his famous great-great-great-grandson Samwise Gamgee. On Cottar's side, four generations are shown, down to Rose Cotton, who would marry Sam Gamgee after his return from the Quest of Mount Doom. Sam and Rose had thirteen children in all, and from those children came the Fairbairns of Undertowers and the Gardner family. Notes
