To answer your thread question, if I'm not mistaken, it does explain the circumstances and reasoning for why Gandalf first entered Moria in the FotR. I believe he first went in when he was searching for Thrain and Thror, Thorin's father and grand-father. It explains that in (correct me if I'm wrong) The Unfinished Tales as well as The Hobbit. Now that I think about though, i don't think it did say it anywhere in the FotR so, if someone could verify what I just said, it'd be appreciated.
