Sandyman

Sandyman is the owner of the Old Mill in Hobbiton, and father to Ted Sandyman. His fist name was never told in the story. He was always ready to pass on tall tales, he was an opinionated fellow, who was unpopular with Sam Gamgee's father Hamfast Gamgee. It seems that he died sometime in the years before the War of the Ring, with his Mill being inherited by his son Ted, who sold it to Lotho Sackville-Baggins during his takeover of the Shire.
