It was Silmarien who did not succeed her father, Tar-Elendil. The laws of Numenorean succession were later changed, allowing first-born daughters to rule as queens. In any case, Silmarien begat a line of Kings in her own right, for it was from her that the Lords of Andunie would eventually become Kings of Gondor and Arnor.

Oh yeah, and I almost forgot, she married Elatan -- which I guess would be the answer.
