I can't find the dates of Dinodas on the family tree. Furthermore Foster's Guide gives only speculative dates, meaning that these arent given in LotR. Sage 17:01, 8 February 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Aren't additional dates given in PM? --Ederchil (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 17:44, 8 February 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Right, but I don't have this at hand. Can you verify these and add a reference? Sage 19:39, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Couldn't find a ref in PM - Dino doesn't appear in the early versions. The 50th anniversary edition doesn't give dates either. It's best to remove it.--Ederchil (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 20:00, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Table BR4, page 105 of PM shows a "Priamus" with dates S.R. 1316-1410. In the notes on page 103 Christopher states that in the final family tree (called BR5) Priamus's name was changed to Dinodas.
With several of the trees the final version is actually shown but is described in the notes - it's worth remembering this for any future questions about a lot of these anonymous hobbits. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 23:36, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
