As to Arwen's burial- it's always been my impression (w/o actual evidence) that very few of the Silvan natives of Lorien or Mirkwood were disposed to leave or seek the west- they just dwindled to a "little folk of dell and cave." Legolas was (a) a Sindarin prince and (b) one who had seen the Sea and heard the gulls (obviously a turning-point in his life)
I agree with Lommy that Celeborn's treasure is Arwen, his granddaughter who lived with him for ages.
