In late writings (see: The History of Middle-earth), Tolkien speculated that the two Galdors may have been the same, but he ultimately rejected the notion: if Galdor had remained behind, he would either have completely rejected the call of the Valar, and thus have Fallen, or he would have had to leave and then return like Glorfindel did, which would make him a far more powerful person than his appearance in The Lord of the Rings suggests. For this reason Tolkien speculated that "Galdor" was simply a common Sindarin name. See The Peoples of Middle-earth.
For much of the Third Age, the Corsairs used the Havens as a base of operations, and the city at the head of the inlet was called the City of the Corsairs.
The Grey Havens were west of the Shire beyond the Tower Hills.
The Havens were located where the River Lune emptied into the Gulf of Lune, which in turn opened onto the Sea.
