In briefanswer capsule

Guilin was father to Gelmir and to Gwindor of Nargothrond. Beyond that kinship the given passages barely speak of him. Gwindor, once among Nargothrond’s lords, rode during the Nirnaeth Arnoediad as far as Angband’s gates and was taken; later Beleg found him spent and shaken in Taur-nu-Fuin, where he named Guilin as his father.
