hey estelyn!
i actually started a thread here sometime ago entitled "is elven remarriage having two spouses" in reference to the situation of finwe, his first departed wife miriel and his second living wife indis the vanyar.
if i remember correctly, it was mithadan who enlightened me with a story from morgoth's ring, whereafter miriel's death finwe sought her release from the halls of mandos. miriel refused to be released, so the valar gave finwe permission to remarry (and IMHO, to complete the circle of fate involving all his sons and their offsprings). so he married indis. finwe died, and then feanor died, and feanor was decreed to stay with mandos because of his deeds and in accordance with the doom of mandos after the kinslaying at alqualonde. finwe elected to remain with his beloved eldest (hellooo! what about his wife huh?), so miriel was released from mandos to dwell in valinor. miriel and indis were even.
cool story!
