Not convinced. Especially since they feared the Elven folk, and given the long timespans since that time of the Numenorean influence. We're talking thousands of years.
Although, the Elves were a dwindling peoples and I don't know that they had anything other than a seclusionist policy and dwelled together in their few and small realms in Middle Earth at the end of the Third Age.
We still know nothing at all about the Avari, who would have remained very unlikely to have done anything but dwell in Middle Earth.
Is there anything in Letters about Elven settlements?
