Elendil and Isildur were Kings of Arnor as well as Gondor, but after Isildur the realm was split. Isildur's heirs ruled Arnor, and Anárion's heirs ruled Gondor.

Eärnur was taken in Minas Morgul and never seen again, and the Kingdom of Gondor was ruled by a succession of Stewards until the restoration of the line of Kings with Elessar (Aragorn), the first king of the Reunited Kingdom of Gondor and Arnor.
