Adalgrim Took, a Hobbit (or halfling), was born in TA 2880 (Third Age). His parents were Hildigrim Took and Rosa Baggins.

Adalgrim had four daughters and one son. The youngest of his daughters was Esmeralda (Took) Brandybuck, the mother of Meriadoc Brandybuck. Adalgrim's son was Paladin Took II, the father of Peregrin Took.

Adalgrim was a cousin of Bilbo Baggins, although he did not attend Bilbo's farewell Birthday Party in TA 3001.

Although Adalgrim was never Thain of the Shire, his son Paladin became Thain in TA 3015, when Ferumbras Took III, Paladin's cousin, died.

Adalgrim died in TA 2982.

The name of Adalgrim's wife and the cause of his death remain unknown.
