Re: Celebrimbor

Celebrimbor's parentage is debated in either UT or Peoples of Middle Earth. JRRT apparently began leaning away from Feanorean ancestry for him. However, this conflicts with what was published in LoTR. The issue is not resolved. There are some intriguing outlines in either UT or Peoples regarding Celebrimbor and his relationship to Galadriel. In one, it is said that he was from Gondolin. I don't recall anything about his mother.
