Finduilas certainly had Elven blood, being a descendant of Mithrellas of Lorien who married Imrazor the Numenorean. Their son was the first Lord of Dol Amroth.

Imrahil, brother of Finduilas, shows his Elven ancestry clearly enough to be recognized by Legolas as a kinsman. It's possible her Elven blood was what made Finduilas so susceptible to the malign effects of Mordor's nearness, apparently Elves are far more sensitive and adversely affected by such things than we Mortal Men.
