In my version of later Tuor in UT, the note is 31 not 59.
Sorry - it's page 59 in my edition, note 31.

Regarding Argon: I had thought that since Argon was dead, he wasn't being counted; but you make the good point that Thingol is killed in the previous chapter. However (and now we're being really pedantic) the arrival of Tuor in Gondolin actually takes place several years before the quarrel of Thingol and the Dwarves. Considering this, I think we are justified in omitting "Argon", and I would vote to do so as it sounds to me a bit awkward to include him (particularly since his role is so brief).
