Númendil

Númendil was the father of Amandil and grandson of Eärendur of Andúnië, the fifteenth Lord of Andúnië. 
==Biography==
He came to the throne after his father (whose name is unknown) and became the seventeenth Lord of Andúnië. By the time when Tar-Palantir was King of Númenor, both Lord and King desired a return to the old traditions of Númenor, and they were close friends and political allies. Tar-Palantir would at times travel to see Númendil in Andúnië, and as a Councillor of the Sceptre, Númendil would often journey to the King's seat at Armenelos.Unfinished Tales, Part Two: The Second Age, chapter III: "The Line of Elros: Kings of Númenor", Tar-Palantir
Númendil's son Amandil inherited the Lordship of Andúnië, and through him, Númendil would become the ancestor of all Kings of the Dúnedain in Middle-earth. 
== Other versions of the legendarium ==
In earlier versions of J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium, Númendil was intended to have a second son, Elentir.The History of Middle-earth, Vol. XII: The Peoples of Middle-earth, chapter V: "The History of the Akallabêth" This notion, however, was eventually abandoned.
