Glorfindel [In reply to] Can't Post

I don't think it is confirmed, but Glorfindel's golden hair suggests that he probably belonged to the House of Finarfin.

Since you asked... [In reply to] Can't Post

I checked Fingolfin, but it was almost a tie with Finarfin.

let me double check that.... [In reply to] Can't Post

http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/House_of_Finarfin

It mentions Galadriel, Gildor, and perhaps Glorfindel... so, they think so yes, but not totally sure... like... maybe... probably...

Crazy

There was a tendency for these Elves to have golden hair (because of their being half-Vanyar:

The Vanyar are the highest of the High Elves. According to legend, the clan was founded by Imin, the first Elf to awake in Cuiviénen, his wife Iminyë, and their twelve companions. At this time, they were called the Minyar (Q: "first ones", pron. [ˈmiɲar]). However, it was Ingwë, the first Vanya to travel with Oromë to Valinor, who became their king. They were the first to reach Beleriand after the Great Journey.

All of the Vanyar journeyed to Valinor before the beginning of the Years of the Sun, and remained there. They are said to have the greatest skill in poetry of all the Elves, and Manwë and Varda love them for this.

At first the Vanyar dwelt in Tirion with the Noldor but they loved the light of the Two Trees and settled in the plains and woods Valinor or the slopes of Taniquetil. Ingwë is called High King of the Elves. He lives on Taniquetil beneath the halls of Manwë. [1]

Another notable Vanya was Indis, the second wife of Finwë and grandmother of Galadriel. It is from her Vanyarin blood that Galadriel gained the golden part of her famous silver-gold hair.

Gildor, leader of the Elves the Hobbits meet on the road to Rivendell, is definitely House of Finrod (eldest son of Finarfin, brother of Galadriel).

Konrad et al with Feanor.

Where would we be without the palantiri, or the silmarilli .

And where would we be without his grandson Celebrimbor.

Shoots a snootful of Tolkien’s legendarium. CoolCool
