Imrahil does as is noted, clearly, and we do know Imrahil has *two* sisters--I (Ivreniel) am one of them and Finduilas is the second.

Denethor and Imrahil were brothers-in-law.

I was not arguing about Faramir's elvish blood from Finduilas, but whether they are descendants of Anarion from a female line.

The House of Stewards even after ruling Gondor for a thousand years were behind the Prince's of Dol Amroth and at least one other family and probably more. So at the time they were raised to Stewards they may not have yet intermarried with the royal family.

Since you like Ivriniel and the Dol Amroth's so much, you may know it or not, but Eomer and Eowyn were descendants of the Princes too.
