Belecthor II was the twenty-first Ruling Steward of Gondor. He succeeded his father Beregond at his death in T.A. 2811.
History
Belecthor continued his father's campaigns against the Corsairs of Umbar. The White Council met in 2850, where Gandalf urged an attack on Dol Guldur to drive Sauron out, but Saruman overruled him.
Belecthor was followed by his son Thorondir at his death in 2872. The White Tree of Gondor died with him.
Other versions of the legendarium
Belecthor's date of death was recorded in Appendix A and "The Heirs of Elendil" as Third Age 2872, but in Appendix B as Third Age 2852. Since the 50th Anniversary Edition of The Lord of the Rings this has been corrected so all dates now show Third Age 2872.[1]
