Orgulas Brandybuck

The youngest son of Marmadoc the Masterful

Marmadoc Brandyuck, the Master of Buckland, had four children: two sons and two daughters. His eldest son Gorbadoc became Master of Buckland in his turn, but Gorbadoc's young brother Orgulas also gave rise to a family line. His great-grandchildren Merimas, Mentha and Melilot were present at Bilbo's farewell feast long after Orgulas' time.


Notes

1

Orgulas' name follows the phonetic structure common among the Brandybucks, but if the name has an intended meaning or a historical derivation, that source remains obscure.
