Then, it would (officially, anyway,) be the day Bilbo signed his new will which bypassed Otho. Date, date... hmmm...

Not sure on dates. But when Bilbo adopted Frodo and took him in.

Nine years after the death of Frodo's parents. I do not think I can get any more exact. JRRT probably could though.

I used the book for the question, so without being a super being it may be too difficult to answer. Of course we do have some of those on the board I'll give it until the end of day and then if no one gets it, pass the next question on to someone else.

Inheritance is not exactly the same as heir. Good try though.
