But to answer your question -
Spoiler:
Nah they do not find them so cry in a corner... and, yes, Gollum DOES die but please stop asking these does-xy-die-questions... EVERYBODY does die sooner or later, just a question of time.
arnt Hurons kinda like evil trees cuz Treebeard said that they grow wild, anger infests in their hearts or something like that so thats why there are Ents so they can control/watch them in the tt ee thats what attacks/captures Merry and Pip and in the book that happens in Buckland i think with Tom Bombadil they use that praise Tom says and give it to treebeard... i think this i dont know if i am right so dont get all butt hurt if i am wrong

@Aragorn: not necessarily evil (what IS evil? fx all the "evil" Huorns helped to win the battle of the Hornburg), but Huorns are Ents who become treeish, or, rather, trees who become entish, they are awaking trees - and they awake because of anger, anger about "evil" things done to the forest. (this wood is old... and full of anger...)
the area known as the brown lands was once home to the entwives, but was destroyed at the end of the second age, although tolkien says he doesn't know i think it's a hint that they may be what is living in the old forrest near buckland.
tolkien has done this sort of thing a few times, like the two blue wizards who arived on middle earth with saruman but travelled to the east never to return. that leaves alot open, and lead to interesting theories but the whole lack of closure on the entwives situation is just a tragic part of the story.
