OK -- well as it seems I've effectively killed the thread, here's the solution:

Mimosa Bunce --> Bilbo Baggins* --> Elrond --> captain of Tar-Minastir's forces** --> Tar-Minastir

* Bilbo was 11 when Mimosa died so he must have had some contact with her

** I can't find a direct reference that Tar-Minastir went to Gil-Galad's aid himself; the accounts in the UT an the Appendix of LotR state that he "sent" an army...

Be that as it may, Telchar was so close that I shall cede the floor to him
