: : : And finally I feel there's a further balance in that in the second Age there exists one Feanorian (Celebrimbor), one Fingolfian (Gil-Galad) and one Finarfian (Galadriel)...

: : Says who? Elrond is descended from them as is Celebrian, and Amroth if you take him as Galadriels son.

: Elrond is half-elven and doesn't count. Celebrian is Galadriel's child and moreover she was probably born during the Second Age, not the first.

Does count as is a direct descendant and ultimately heir to the Royal Line of Fingolfin

: And as for Amroth, no I don't take him s Galadriel's son since something as important as that would have been mentioned in LotR...

But is mused on in unfinished tales and therefore is another of the profs 'undecideds'

: : Maglor, Caranthir and Curufuin were all married, an Chris Tolkein himself reports that his father said 'we never meet the progeny of Feanors sons' whilst debating the parentage of Celebrimbor.
: : There could feasibly exist other offspring who do not enter the tales but nonetheless exist

: Indeed, nonetheless they didn't enter the tales and thus they don't exist *in* the tales... And I know of no other way to measure their existence.

: Aris Katsaris

No, but also they COULD exist and therefore, the existence of them would alter your balance, whether in the Authors subconcious, or on the written page
