CT says that the note on PoME 350 (making Orodreth's wife a Sinda) is later than the Celebrimbor one, and dates that note firmly to August 1965; interestingly that's the same precisely-dated month as NoME 1.XVIII.

I think the relative placing of these notes by Christopher is confusing, given that he also seems to indicate that the notes from PoMe 317–8 were written by Tolkien in his copy of the second edition of The Return of the King (1966).
