Whew! Heavy discussion. Coming into this late, I'm not going to try to figure out who I'm agreeing or disagreeing with. We know that JRRT felt that Galadriel was important as a factor of her lineage and the time he dedicated to writing about her in a purely biographical sense. But what her precise history was is never resolved by JRRT. Celeborn is a Teleri in one version and a Sinda in another. Did she live with Melian? Probably. I'll come back to this one another time.
