NO idea. But thanks for the game!
Fun!!! My genealogy skills are a bit rusty, but here's my best guess: 1c, 2b, 3b, 4b, 5a, 6b, 7c, 8a, 9d, 10c. I only hope I haven't screwed it up completely because I'm doing it from my phone))
ReplyDeleteOoh, great idea! I'm not the most knowledgeable in this area, but we'll see how I do. ;)
ReplyDelete#1. c (Yay, I know this one!)
#2. b (Just a guess--I'm not that sure who the dwarves are related to)
#3. d (I feel like this is correct?)
#4. a (Again, just going on intuition)
#5. a (Haha, finally one I KNOW!)
#6. b (Feels like it's correct...)
#7. c (I know this one's right!)
#8. a (I know the last two are married, and I feel like Tom Bombadil and Goldberry are)
#9. c (I think I've seen this somewhere? Maybe on Pinterest. XD)
#10. a (I know it's not b ;D)
This was fun, Hamlette! Hopefully I got at least some of them right!

3. D they aren't related
4. D they are in-laws
5. A Theodred
6. A Elrohir and Elladan
7. C Niece
8. A Ioreth and Imrahil (I don't remember who Ioreth is, but since the other three sets are married, it has to be this one by default! LOL)
9. D Elanor (I'm pretty sure, cuz I named my cat after her!)
10. A Bungo and Belladonna (for a few minutes I read this question as Frodo's parents and was like, isn't it Drogo and a chick whose name starts with P that I can never remember? I almost answered none of the above until I realized it was Bilbo and not Frodo. LOL!)
Let's see...
