Tolkien Family Tree Trivia

So, everyone who has read LOTR knows that there is a family tree of the Hobbits and others in the Appendices. There is also a few in The Silmarillion. I'm sure there are more in other books as well. This is a trivia to find which family member this person is. I'll start, and anyone can answer after that.

Ok. This one should be quite easy.

..:*In what relation is Arwen to Galadriel and Celeborn?*:..

Believe me, there is one. I found this out today.

Galadriel and Celeborn had a daughter named Celebrian. She married Elrond and they had Arwen. So Galadriel is Arwen's grandmother. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I think they are linked when Marigold married Tolman Cotton. Holman is Tolman's father, so Marigold is Holman's daughter-in-law.

You have to be more specific, Tower of Moon and Shadow. Think of their father's and it is really not that complicated.

Yes I suppose, but wrong Elendil. I was referring to the Lord of Andunie that escaped the Sinking of Numenor, not the King of Numenor many centuries before.

sorry for the confusion!

Tower of Moon and Shadow seems to be on a holiday, so I will continue, since this topic is good!

Which marriage connected the Houses of Olwë and Elwë?

Elrond and Celebrian?

Elrond was Elwe's great,great grandson and Celebrian was Olwe's great grandaughter.

By the way, no one has correctly answered my question, Who were Elendil's (as in isildur's father) Father and Grandfather?
