In briefanswer capsule

Nerdanel was a Noldo of great skill, daughter of the smith Mahtan, and the wife of Fëanor. She bore him seven sons and for a time tempered his fire with her counsel; later she would not follow him into exile and they parted. Of those sons, Maedhros and Curufin are entered in this register; the others await their own records.
