Unless there is another Baldor, he did die in the Paths of the Dead. He was the oldest son of the second King of Rohan during the time when Meduseld was built. It was said that during the feast of celebration for the completion of Meduseld, Baldor announced that he would walk the Paths of the Dead. However, he passed the doors never to be seen again by any in Rohan.
