Description:

1810 King Telumehtar Umbardacil retakes Umbar and drives out the Corsairs.

The Return of the King, LoTR Appendix B, The Tale of Years: The Third Age

Telumehtar [Tarondor’s] son, remembering the death of Minardil, and being troubled by the insolence of the Corsairs, who raided his coasts even as far as the Anfalas, gathered his forces and in 1810 took Umbar by storm. In that war the last descendants of Castamir perished, and Umbar was again held for a while by the kings.

Telumehtar added to his name the title Umbardacil.

The Return of the King, LoTR Appendix A, Annals of the Kings and Rulers: Gondor and the Heirs of Anárion

Telumehtar […] took the title Umbardakil after the storming and destruction of the haven and stronghold of the Corsairs of Umbar (1810). But this was later reoccupied and rebuilt in the troublous times that later befell Gondor.
