Folwren
The dates of birth have to stand as they are. Since these are characters written for by Tolkien, we have to accept the background he gave them.
So:
From HoM-E V, The Lost Road and Other Writings, in "The Genealogies", here is what Tolkien wrote and Christopher edited:
Ulfand the Swart (Ulfang the Black) - b. 100 (400 FA)
Uldor (later called the Accursed) - b. 125 (425 FA)
Ulfast - b. 128 (428 FA)
Ulwar - b. 130 (430 FA)
-----
Ulfang - 71 y/o
Uldor is 46
Ulfast 43
and Ulwarth 41
As Ang says

Do you want to switch to the middle-brother, Ulfast?
