*Note about the location of the [[Dúnedain]] ("In January of 2000, [[David Salo]] shared the following information on the Internet: 'There is a short but hardly legible note which Tolkien wrote for insertion into the story of [[Aragorn]] and [[Arwen]] (and which was not in the event used); it includes information about the location of the Dunedain. Because of the difficulty of the note, the information is not entirely clear, but it suggests that the Dunedain lived in woodlands between the [[Hoarwell|Mitheithel]] and [[Bruinen]]. Source: microfilms at [[Marquette University]], Series 3, Box 9, Folder 3.'")<ref>{{webcite|author=[[Michael Martinez]]|articleurl=http://www.minastirith.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=17;t=000253|articlename=Forum post|dated=7 July 2004|website=[http://www.minastirith.com/ minastirith.com]|accessed=16 April 2017}}</ref>
