I found this, by the help of a fanfiction that was written and posted on Fanfiction.net, it is about Glorfindel...most of it is pretty good. I think that it would be safe to assume that some of this info is based on fact-some are theories that the writer has been tinkering with as well...It is quite interesting, for those who are interested in learning a bit about Glorfindel's past.
article on Glorfindel
The elves do believe in Reincarnation, so maybe it did happen...I think Glorfindel has been an enigma to Tolkien, just as he is to most of his fans, and it was a pity that not much is written about him. I think that he is a worthy character of a book or two. I can think of it now...
The Adventures of Glorfindel and Gandalf!
... that would be interesting!!

"And still of a winter’s night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
A highwayman comes riding—
Riding—Riding—
A highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.
Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard.
And he taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred.
He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord’s black-eyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord’s daughter,
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair"
Highwayman
