Elizabeth, unlike her father, used the headsman's axe with reluctance and after considerable provocation. The relatives she killed deserved their fate as all three, (the Duke of Norfolk, Mary Queen of Scots and the Earl of Essex) were guilty of conspiring against Elizabeth's life and crown - and all three were given second, even third chances to change their ways before she finally resorted to the ultimate sanction.

None of this is in any way comparable to the Kinslaying of Aqualond.

Galadriel doesn't resemble Elizabeth I in any way but Queen Telperien of Numenor, (the second ruling queen) does seem to have been based on 'Gloriana' as she too is a virgin queen.
