Timeline/genealogies of the TFTE

I was wondering, as I have before in previous threads, whether we should have:


1) an all-encompassing timeline (ala Tale of Years in LOTR) of all the legendarium.

Surely, we need some kind of 'Tale of Years' system to organize all this stuff into one consistent timeline?

In regards to the First Age I'll ask Huinesoron (who has done an incredible job of picking out Tolkien's latest writings to compose a speculative 'final' version of what Tolkien might've envisioned as the timeline of the First Age in his 'Round World' legendarium).

Of course, I'll ask him to keep it 'flat-world' friendly!

2) a family tree or set of family trees to encompass every character (connected of course by a familial line) in the legendarium - and as precise dates as possible to accompany them - so if anyone can be bothered: what characters that you know are definitely excluded from the project?

Regardless, I'll still continue working on both 1 and 2.
