I find it hard to fault
symestreem's analysis:
Quote:
Eorl->Brego->Aldor->Frea->Freawine
->Goldwine->Deor->Gram->Helm's sister (Hild?)->Frealaf->Brytta/Leofa->Walda
->Folca->Folcwine->Fengel->Thengel
->Theodwyn->Eomer
That makes Eomer the sixteenth generation after Eorl.

and
Quote:
|
Eomer was a direct descendant of Eorl, just not always through the male line.
|
Which means that
luthien-elvenprincess's original answer is surely correct:
Quote:
|
Eorl would be Eomer's great (x15)-grandpa.

I am not sure where you are going with this one,
Nirvana II, but it seems to me that
luthien-elvenprincess has it. If you disagree, I think that, in the circumstances, you ought perhaps to explain why.
