| | |  Jo donates Black family history to Book Aid
As was previously revealed, J.K.Rowling donated a handwritten note, containing details about the Black family history, to a Book Aid International [a charity which supports literacy in poor countries] auction. Details about this item have now been revealed.
The Daily Telegraph today published a preview of the note. It contains a Black Family tree.
Scans from the newspaper [showing the Tree and a close-up image of it] can all be seen here.
It includes mentions of a Flint, a Bulstrode, a Potter, a Longbottom and a Crouch. Quote:
"There are several familiar names visible, including Callidora who married a Harfang Longbottom. Her sister Charis who married Caspar Crouch. Intriguingly there is a Dorea (1920-1977) who married Charles Potter and had one child, a son. The time frame seems to be consistent with them being James' parents. "
The tree and other auction items will be on display on February 20th at 24 Maddox Street London W1. Tickets to this event cost £10, with the proceeds going to charity. They will then be auctioned off the following day - the Black family tree page is expected to sell at a very high price.

He's also related to Draco somewhere along the line. They're all inter-related, purebloods, though I never expected it to be that extreme. lol.

We knew that in book 5, I think. Or we at least knew Malfoy and Black were linked.

Lol, that complicates my ship a little  Just kidding. They seem to be distantly, distantly related. It looks like Harry's related to Millecent... weird.

It goes to show that, like was said in HPOP, most wizarding families are related. That was a great thing for Jo to do and it is a great piece of HP memorabilia to have.
