mostly for ellen_fremedon

But a little bit for some of you, too!

So the Monday morning after Deathly Hallows -- actually the Tuesday, because I didn't go to work that Monday -- I get to work and what's on ellen_fremedon's whiteboard but a big family-tree type diagram with no names.  It also bore the disclaimer "Some of this, of course, is entirely speculative."

It looked like ( this: )

Of course it doesn't take too much looking to realize you're looking at some sort of HP family tree.  The Weasleys toward the bottom left-hand corner are a big clue.  :-)  Ellen told me she had been trying to see how many characters she could legitimately fit onto a single family tree.  We agree that "legitimately" might be a little generous, but see above re: entirely speculative.

So I made Ellen this chart!  (Diamonds, because the chart program inexplicably didn't have triangles.)  And I have a list, which, as soon as I get her to remind me of the names I've forgotten, I'll also put up; but in the meantime, want to play?  (Alas, unless Ellen has one to offer, there is no prize for getting the most correct answers.)

This refers to this post, in which please note that the graphic is now corrected from the first version to appear there.  (No biggie; one dotted line was added, and one number was added so the rest were shifted down.)  If you want to try to fill in ellen_fremedon's family tree yourself, click the thumbnail below but NOT the lj-cut!
