A good resource is here: http://www.forodrim.org/daeron/md_hmch.html#sixties

The latest writings, in chronological order, are:

A Description of the Island of Númenor
Aldarion and Erendis
The Palantíri
The Line of Elros: Kings of Númenor
The Shibboleth of Fëanor
The Problem of Ros
The Disaster of the Gladden Fields
Cirion and Eorl
The Battles of the Fords of Isen
Of Dwarves and Men
The History of Galadriel and Celeborn
The Drúedain
The bunch of texts titled "Last Writings" in HoME 12.

The bulk of these - from The Shibboleth of Fëanor onwards - are dated to 1968 onwards, with those from The Disaster of the Gladden Fields onwards being dated to 1969 onwards.

In addition to these, there are a number of other works such as the writings associated with the 2nd edition LotR and 3rd Edition Hobbit (which were both much later in Tolkien's life than may seem to be the case), as well as the abandoned 1960s rewriting of the Hobbit itself.
