No, but interesting connection.

Faramir? Beor saved Finrod's life (didn't he?) and Pippin saved Faramir's.

Sorry, but no.

A was the first of his kind B saw?

Precisely.

There are several instances of men/ents seeing hobbits for the first time, but it was Beregond I was looking for.

Congrats. I thought that was going to be much harder.
