Glorfindel
Ahhh - the great mystery. Tolkien never elaborated fully on the origin of Glorfindel, nor did he ever clarify the two-Glorfindel dilemma. As far as I know he was not part of the great tree. My guess is that he may have been one of the original elves of Cuivenen that followed the host of Finwe (similar to the way that Cirdan followed Elwe but was never part of the great chain). Anyway, your guess is as good as mine.
- Maglor
