The elves of Gondolin predated Galadriel iirc. So, Galadriel's ancestors made the sword.

Galadriel had nothing to do with Gondolin but she was definitely in Beleriand at the time. She was around to experience the light of the trees and make her way to Middle Earth with the Noldor.

No shes third generation from the first elves that woke up. She's one of the oldest elves in middle-earth.

I think only her husband is older? Though it's been a while since I read Silmarillion.
