General Facts Not Disclosed In The Books

<span style="font-family:Franklin Gothic Medium">Here are a few...(cheers to www.mugglenet.com)

Prefects can take points; Ron got it wrong in Order of the Phoenix, which makes him a pretty poor prefect, eh?

Fred and George Weasley were born on April Fool's day (no joke).

Ginny Weasley's first name is Ginevra and she is the first female Weasley born for "several generations," says JK.

Arthur Weasley has two brothers.

Molly Weasley's maiden name is Prewett.

Crookshanks is half Kneazle.

The infamous Weasley cousin who was cut from the books was called Mafalda. She was in Slytherin.

Dean Thomas's father was killed by Death Eaters when he refused to join them. Neither Dean nor his mother know this.</span>

I think that Dean deserved to know about his father. It is important becasue no matter what Dean will know that his father died to keep from being a Death Eater, so he will never fall to there so called power. Ya kno! He needs to know.

yeah,your right.[font=Century Gothic][size=3]

It's really sad.

I have seen those on JK official website!

Yeah me too. Here's another one: The Potters and the Longbottoms are distantly related to the Blacks. You can see this on the Black Family tree drawn up by J.K. If you want to see it you'd be best to Google it.

hermione1990. Thank-You VERY much for telling the post about that. I am actually half-way through writing a book of the background of Harry Potter and the other characters, and you have saved the day by telling me about that. i am currently on the chapter of the Black Family, and had not yet found the family tree.

You have saved me hours of searching time, and i Thank-You dearly.

If anyone else has ANY info on the background of ANYONE in the Harry Potter Books, please put into the Topic Called "Harry Potter Background Info".

Thank-You.

I plan to.

You're very welcome Phoenix Dumbledore. It's a pleasure to help. I look forward to reading your book if you ever publish it. And it would be an honour to know that i'd helped you with part of it!!! I will forward any findings I can to you. Have you read the backgrounds of all the characters on J.K.'s site? I especially liked the Dean Thomas one. I like your Avatar by the way.

Are you having it published? Did you have to get permission from JK to write a book about her characters backgrounds?

Hang on, wasn't Dean Thomas muggleborn? He's the one who supports Westham FC isn't he?

Oh i get it now. I've just reread the bit about Dean on Jo's website. I musn't have read it properly the first time.
