I think she has several, none of whom she lived at the same time as.

Her paternal first cousin is her father's sibling's child - ie, Vardamir Nolimon, titular second King of Numenor. That much I could do without looking at the family tree.

You can't go three generations up from Vardamir (well, you can, but you hit Earendil, who's Arwen's grandad, not her cousin), so you have to go down. Known members of the fifth generation of the House of Elros are:

-Irimion Tar-Meneldur, big fan of stars, not a big fan of his son bickering with his wife.
-Silmarien, unfairly untitled mother of the Lords of Andunie.
-Isilme, the 'and Peggy' of Tar-Elendil's kids.
-Caliondo, grandson of Tar-Amandil, and father of Malantur, Tar-Aldarion's heir apparent until he changed the law to let Ancalime rule (quite right too).
-Cemendur, great-grandson of Vardamir, and grandfather of Hallacar husband of Ancalime.
-Lindisse, sister of the above.
-Ardamir, brother of the above.

That's, what, seven named characters in the fifth generation? I've got to be honest, I didn't expect anywhere near that many. I'm not at all sure I haven't missed a couple, either.

(Does the tree branch out this much all the way down? I kind of want to look into that at some point...)

Urwen · 03-29-2020, 01:03 PM

Nope.

I got the information I am after from Sporcle.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 12-27-2002, 11:00 AM

Yep that's correct!

Beren87 · 12-27-2002, 02:05 PM

Wonderful!

Who was Esmeralds Took's great-grandfather's grandfather's brother?

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 12-27-2002, 05:29 PM

Umm...father's or mother's side?

Beren87 · 12-27-2002, 05:31 PM

Fathers side.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 12-27-2002, 05:33 PM

Would that be Bandobras Took?

Beren87 · 12-27-2002, 05:36 PM

Yep! Bullroarer it is!

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 12-27-2002, 05:46 PM

Who are Celebrian's great-grandfathers on her mother's side?

busybee · 12-28-2002, 05:09 AM

Beren87 · 01-08-2003, 12:16 AM

Is she correct Thengise? *bumps to top*

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 01-08-2003, 08:31 AM

Oops sorry! I had forgotten that I had the last question here. That is partially correct Busybee, but I had said on her mother's side, which doesn't mean it had to be traced through only females. So you have 2 out of the 3 great-grandparents. I need one more grandfather.

zacattack · 01-08-2003, 06:38 PM

Finwe Olwe
| |
Finarfin=Earwen
|
Galadriel
|
Celebrian

That's all the Great Grandfathers I got Thengise because Elwe can't be her Great Grandfather because he is Olwe's brother so he'd be here Great Great Uncle

[ January 08, 2003: Message edited by: zacattack ]

lathspell · 01-10-2003, 09:32 AM

Finwë - Indis the Fair = greatgrandparents
||
Finarfin - Earwën = grandparents
||
Galadriel = mother
|
Celebrian

This is it, I guess.

lathspell · 01-10-2003, 09:34 AM

Oops... my mistake, you asked for greatgrandfathers. In that case zacattack has already answered your question correctly, I believe.

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 01-10-2003, 06:32 PM

Yes, zacattack is correct! The third great-grandfather is Finwe. Unfortunately Busybee got two of them, so I believe it would rightfully be her turn. Right?

zacattack · 01-11-2003, 01:48 AM

Hey I got two of them aswell so I'll list all 3 of them

Finwe
Olwe
Elwe

I am the first person to have all 3 so am I right

Beren87 · 01-11-2003, 01:59 AM

Just interjecting my two and a half cents. It would now be zacattack's turn as he was the one to come up with the final and complete answer. (Still wait for Thengise to confirm your answrees though)

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 01-11-2003, 12:51 PM

LoL! Yes zaccattack you are the first to state them all. And Beren87 thanks for telling me, I didn't know that's how it went. I'm deeply sorry. So yep zacattack it's your go!

Lyra Greenleaf · 03-30-2003, 03:01 PM

10 days are officially up, so who is Pippin's older sister's aunt's grandfather's youngest sister's youngest daughter's husband's father?

elven maiden Earwen · 03-30-2003, 04:55 PM

Merry??

Eruanna · 03-30-2003, 05:22 PM

Fosco Baggins??
I think it goes: Esmerelda>> Hildegrim>>Mirabella>> Primula>>Drogo>>Fosco.

Primula and Drogo being Frodo's parents.

Lyra Greenleaf · 03-31-2003, 12:16 PM

Eruanna is correct. Your turn!

Eruanna · 03-31-2003, 03:03 PM

Ok, here's mine;

Find the name of Elrond's Great-Great Grandfather's (on his father's side)eldest son's son.

[ March 31, 2003: Message edited by: Eruanna ]

Beren87 · 03-31-2003, 04:44 PM

Elrond's father was Earendil, who's father (his granfather) was Tuor, who's father (his great-grandfather) was Hour who's eldest son was...Tuor, Tuor's son was Earendil.

So is the answer Earendil?

Eruanna · 03-31-2003, 05:00 PM

Nope.... I'm looking for the Great-great grandfather's eldest son's son.

Beren87 · 03-31-2003, 05:04 PM

Huor only had one son didn't he?

Eruanna · 03-31-2003, 05:13 PM

Tuor was Huor's only son, but Huor was Elrond's Great-Grandfather. You need to go back another generation... Or to another relation of Huor. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

the real findorfin · 03-31-2003, 05:13 PM

Turin.

Elrond>Earendil>Tuor>Huor>galdor>Hurin>Turin

Eruanna · 03-31-2003, 05:17 PM

Yes!...Your turn. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

the real findorfin · 04-01-2003, 10:39 AM

Elros' youngest grandson's youngest great grandson's son's son.

Eruanna · 04-01-2003, 02:29 PM

I'll have a guess....Aragorn?

the real findorfin · 04-01-2003, 02:32 PM

Nope

Eruanna · 04-01-2003, 03:07 PM

Is this it:

Elros > Nolondil > Hallatan > Hallacar > Anárion?

the real findorfin · 04-04-2003, 08:28 AM

Yes, Tar-Anarion it is.

Eruanna · 04-04-2003, 01:13 PM

OK. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Who was Pippin's sister's Great-Grandfather's oldest brother's son's son?

Faenaduial · 04-04-2003, 03:42 PM

Ferumbras III?

Eruanna · 04-04-2003, 03:51 PM

That's right! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
