Anairë

Daugther of ?.

Born in V.Y.t. in Valinor or at Cuivienien but no year given. ( around year 1190 in Aman seems fair. This was the birthyear of Fingolfin, her later husbond )

Died ?. She never left Aman.

Weddet to Fingolfin.

Mother to Fingon, Turgon and Aredhel.

Valian Years of the Trees.

There are no records of Anairë save she was the wife of Fingolfin inscribed in the Elvish genealogies of 1959 and that she remained in Aman. A possible explanation may be that she was of the Vanyar-elves and thus not permitted to leave Aman.

V.Y.t. 1240-1245. Wedded to Fingolfin ? If we can assume that Anairë was born around the same years as Fingolfin then we from the accounts of marriage among Elves can say that Anairë in 1240 would reach the age were marriage was natural. If so, again from the accounts of marriage the first child would often be born soon after the marriage. In that case Fingon would most probably have been born between these years.

V.Y.t.1300. Turgon is born.

V.Y.t. 1362. Aredhel is born.

V.Y.t.1496. Fingon, Turgon, Aredhel and Fingolfin left Aman. Anairë remained in Aman.
