She married Milo Burrows (a descendant of Master Gorbadoc of Buckland) and they had four children of their own: Mosco, Moro, Myrtle and Minto. Peony was related to both Bilbo and Frodo Baggins, but only distantly: the closest relation all three had in common was Peony's great-great-grandfather Balbo Baggins, who had been born some two hundred years before her time.
