Maidros

Maidros, or Golfinweg, was a Ñoldorin Elf in earlier versions of the legendarium.
==Biography==
Maidros was the father of Bruithwir (the precursor to Finwë) and grandfather of Fëanor.The History of Middle-earth, Vol. I: The Book of Lost Tales Part One, chapter VI: "The Theft of Melko and the Darkening of Valinor"
==Other versions of the legendarium==
J.R.R. Tolkien's accounts of this character went through several revisions. In fact, "Golfinweg" was reused as the name of Finwë, who was made the father of Fëanor; while the name Maidros was partially reused for the character of Maedhros, the first son of Fëanor. Furthermore, the father of Finwë remained unnamed.
