In the Sil it says that when Fingolfin and Fingon came up, the battle was all ready underway, and them thinking that the Teleri were trying to hender the Noldor from their road, joined in before they knew what was happening.

None of the children of Finarfin that I know of participated in the kinslaying. UT does say that Galadriel bravely defended her mother's kin.
