This genealogical chart includes some characters only mentioned in volume XI of
The History of Middle-earth. See the entry for
Malach for notes on his wife Zimrahin and daughter Adanel.
Marach was the leader of the Third House of the Edain, who led his people across the Blue Mountains into Beleriand. His son Malach went into the service of High King Fingolfin, spending fourteen years in Fingolfin's land of Hithlum. Malach was one of the first Men to learn the Elvish language, and later brought a great many of his people westwards to dwell in Hithlum. The Elves gave him a title in token of his service and devotion: Aradan, which signifies a high or noble Man.
Notes

These dates of Malach's life and death are taken from a genealogical chart within volume XI of The History of Middle-earth. They are not therefore strictly canonical, but they are consistent with what we're told about Malach in The Silmarillion.
