You are correct,
@Eamila Bolger, I am indeed, Findegil, the King's Writer found only in the prologue of TFoTR.
The original Red Book has not been preserved, but many copies were made, especially of the first volume, for the use of the descendants of the children of Master Samwise. The most important copy, however, has a different history. It was kept at Great Smials, but it was written in Gondor, probably at the request of the great-grandson of Peregrin, and completed in S.R. 1592 (F.A. 172). Its southern scribe appended this note: Findegil, King's Writer, finished this work in IV 172. It is an exact copy in all details of the Thain's Book in Minas Tirith. That book was a copy, made at the request of King Elessar, of the Red Book of the Periannath, and was brought to him by the Thain Peregrin when he retired to Gondor in IV 64. Prologue, TFoTR

Well, it was a great one, @Drífa ! I kept wondering how a person could not be in LotR, in the 4th Age and not in the Appendices. And then looking for something else I ended up in the prologue and... there you go!
I love how Tolkien even had names for persons like this, only mentioned this once and seemingly unimportant.
I'll be back with a new one soon!
