hmmmm well with my research Elrond is over 4700 yrs old.......And not all elves are immortal, and i'm lookinf just for when they die ( but since most of them go to the great havens, then death is not important)....i wanna know when they were born
And chica, during the MOVIE Gandalf did not get his elf ring yet Cirdan still had his, gandalf got his ring when they were leaving for the shire

Gandalf had it ages before he left the Shire in the books, why do you assume different in film?
Now, Peter Jackson has fixed Legolas' age at 2931 years old. But this has always struck me as odd- I always got the idea that Legolas was far younger in the books.
Tolkien never officially sets his age. We know he is at least 500 years old but little clues point to him not being much older than that. This page will show you the evidence we have:

well the rest of the rings of power arent ever really disgused as to who had them (as far as i have read). I believe it was thorins grandfather thror who had one of the dwarven rings, but had it taken away from him when he was slain outside moria (i think). as for the rest of the dwarven rings who knows. now the rings of men are obviously possesed by the ringwraiths but who were they? If i remember right some where numenorean lords who had established realms in middle earth, but the witch king i beleive was a man who became a great sorceror under the teaching of sauron and then took a ring of power, but then i again now that i think about it the sorceror dude might be the mouth of sauron. Ush, what you say, sound right?

No-one really knows the Nazgul's origins but it is rumoured the Witch-King was a Dunadan- a Numenorean, at that- and his second is meant to be an Easterling.

They aren't physical so it would be hard. But I THINK Sauron has them.

yeah thats what I thought, but Sauron doesn't have physical form, so they've got to be somewhere.

so you are saying that once the rings had power over the wraiths Sauron took the rings back from them? interesting i never thought of it that way i just always assumed that they still wore them. hummm. also wasnt the second in comand of the wraiths name gothmog? i dont now where i read that and i dont know if the guy was named after the lord of the balrogs or what.

Yeah, I have never heard a Nazgul called Gothmog- I doubt Tolkien would have done that.
