Was just perusing The Lost Road and the AB2,[the Annal for 307 (later emmended to [507]) when I noticed CJRT saying that the LAter annals of Valinor and Beleriand were found after the publication of the QS 77/99.

What makes this of some interest to our debate is that in the Synopsis which is similar to Q30 in depth one important detail is missing re: the Battle.

We do read of Ecthelion, Glorfindel's and Turgon's death [all from Q 30 also] but our dear friend Rog is not to be found.

OF course I hardly expect this to be much of a straw on a camels back for anyone but it deserves to be noted, as the fact that Rog was in the (previously and erroneously spoken of as final) Q30 version of the FoG as still surviving.
