Hot, crispy nice hobbit has just left Hobbiton.
Hey, I totally take my hat off to you, symestreem. You sure are a sticker for details...

According to the Appendix of LOTR, Theoden had four sisters, two of which had been, like him, born in Gondor. The other two sisters were born in Rohan, of which Theodwyn was Theoden's favorite. Theodred sure had many aunts...

Theoden was 71 when he died on the Pelennor Fields, I believe. Perhaps his three or two other sisters remained unwed and therefore childless? Or maybe they did married and their children served Theoden; I always though Theoden a bit too upset at Hama's death...
