I'm making Middle-Earth genealogies.

Genealogy_dude · 02-18-2005, 10:08 PM

They're cool.

Genealogy_dude · 02-18-2005, 10:09 PM

I've done Elves and Men so far.

ElemmÃrÃ« · 02-18-2005, 10:30 PM

Which version of the story are you following?

************Finarfin - EÃ¤rwen

Finrod ; Angrod - Edhellos ; Aegnor ; Galadriel - Celeborn

*********Orodreth************CelebrÃ*an - Elrond

*****Gil-Galad ; Finduilas****Elladan ; Elrohir ; Arwen - Aragorn

****************************************Eldarion

hmm...well, I did it from Finwe, Olwe, Elwe, and Elmo down to Aragorn and Arwen. Along with all of the other main elfish families, and Aragorn's lineage from Elindel to Eldarion (Aragorn's son). I also did the Tooks, Brandybucks, Baggins, and Gamgees. AND I also did Boromir's lineage, and Durin's Line. They are so cool.

A couple suggestions: never write "elfish" instead of "elvish".

Tolkien apparently hated that.

And I think you meant "Elendil".

Other than that... yeesh! I'm impressed that you got from Elendil to Eldarion...

Of course, that's Valandil's department, not mine. I go for the First Age Elves...

[edited] I see you've joined our FÃ«anor bashing club.

Very nice.

I made genealogies of the 3 houses of the Edain, all the way down to Aragorn and stuff, it took awhile

Genealogy_dude · 02-22-2005, 07:30 PM

Thanks Elemmire! Yo, Italianlegolas, That. Is. Cool. Yeah, I forgot to spell check...and yeah, Feanor was an idiot.

A complete and utter idiot under any definition of the word! Come to my precious FÃ«anor bashing thread and kill him with us!

When it comes to geneology, I keep myself busy learning every name of every member of the House of FinwÃ«, and the meanings of the names... Okay, maybe that comes closer to my Quenya obsession, but anywho...

Embladyne · 02-22-2005, 07:50 PM

I see you're working for Elrond....doesn't it amuse you that he and his children are related to almost everyone else in Middle Earth?

Anyways, If you'd like to share your genealogies, that would be awesome! Do you have them hosted on some website? Or saved as word documents?
Ellie is right about thinking about which versions of lineage you're following...maybe you could write the contested versions in...with notes.

Genealogy_dude · 02-22-2005, 07:53 PM

Well, yes it does amuse me. Did you guys notice that he married his third cousin once removed? I made them on Microsoft Access. I'll put them on a website in a little while. Do you need permission to put something like that on the web?

Embladyne · 02-22-2005, 07:57 PM

Yeah, I noticed the marriage thing.

I think you'll be safe posting on the web, if you make sure to put a notice that the work is not your property, and belongs to the Tolkien Estate. Go check out the Encyclopedia of Arda and see what they say about the copyright issue stuff.

Genealogy_dude · 02-22-2005, 08:02 PM

Thanks Embladyne, for the info. It seems like alot of Elves did the same marriage thing.

ElemmÃrÃ« · 02-22-2005, 08:20 PM

About Aredhel:
"There she was often in the company of the sons of FÃ«anor, her kin; but to none was her heart's love given."

You'd think that'd go without saying, being first cousins and all!

Genealogy_dude · 02-22-2005, 08:24 PM

yeah, really! I still can't get over the fact that Turin married his sister! I just read that today, so I have to add that into me genealogy...

Genealogy_dude · 02-22-2005, 08:26 PM

oh yeah and...*smilies cunningly* I have the Eldanar font on my other computer!

Telcontar_Dunedain · 03-08-2005, 02:14 PM

I may soon be starting a genealogie from Finwe, Ingwe, Olwe and Elwe to Eldarion including the three houses of the Edain.
