Tolkiens life quiz.
(Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I didn't know where to put it )
We have loads of quizzes about his work, but not about him and his life! I thought it would be a good idea to learn and test our knowledge! Ok, How many friends of his were alive after the war, and how many of his close friends died? |

I seem to remember that there were 4 before the war, and 1 after.

O, it's a trivia game? Great!
What (aside from their names and dates) was inscribed on the graves of John Ronald Reuel Tolkien and Edith Tolkien?

Hmm... I think John, Christopher, Michael, and Priscilla? There may have been more, and I'm not sure about the 'John'.
