 | | Huor was the younger son of Galdor, Lord of Dor-lómin, and grandson of Hador Lórindol, Huor was in his turn the father of Tuor and grandfather of Eärendil the Mariner. |
 | | Following the custom of Men in those days, Huor and his elder brother Húrin were fostered by their uncle Haldir, the lord of the Haladin of Brethil, and so they were dwelling in that forest at the time of the Dagor Bragollach ("Battle of Sudden Flame") in First Age 455. |
 | | Before they parted, Huor prophesied to Turgon that new hope would spring from the two of them, saying "...from you and from me a new star will arise." This later proved to be true, for his son Tuor wedded Turgon's daughter Idril, and their son was Eärendil the Blessed. |
