Born in the Kingdom of Rohan in T.A. 2619 during the reign of his great-grandfather Aldor the Old, Goldwine was the sole child of Fréawine, who became the fifth King of Rohan in T.A. 2659. After King Fréawine passed following his twenty-one year rule, the Kingship passed then to Prince Goldwine in T.A. 2680.
