Fair enough, though I wonder when. UT claims that "Annael and many of his folk had indeed escaped from Dor-lómin and came at last to Círdan in the far South", and that Ulmo had been picking up gossip about Tuor from them. Perhaps they went over to Balar, and so weren't around Sirion when Tuor showed back up? (Come to think of it,
I placed him at the totally-serious Regency Council where Gil-Galad was proclaimed High King...)
But yes, he joins Nellas on the list of "if they were alive, surely someone would have mentioned it?" Sindar.
