Galadriel is the aunt of Gildor,
We don't actually know that Gildor was a son, or descendant of Finrod. His second name-Inglorion hints at this. (Inglor being the name of Finrod at the time the the Ptoffesor wrote loTR and 'ion' meaning scion, hence Erienion, scion of kings, a name for Gil-Galad.)

On Galadriel, I don't think that Galadriel existed at the time in which Tolkien wrote about the Hobbits meeting with Gildor in the Shire, so any kinship between the two wouldn't have been intentional, by Tolkien.

There was a mist coming from the forest ( i remember not if it say that come from Galadriel or someone else from her people) and the Rohirrim leader - forget his name - was helped to get in safety and in time in the battle, but he still did not trusted the forest, meaning he was still afraid of Galadriel and the elfs. --posted by JCamilo
This was in Unfisnhed tales, in which Eorl and the Northmen we're allowed to pass through this mists thanks to Galadriel.

As we see in LoTR, not many men trusted Lothlorien.
