Is James definitely a pure-blood? Because if his whole ancestry was pure-blood, surely some relations must be still around?
In OOTP, Sirius says all the pure-blood families are inter-linked through marriage because there's so little of them, for example the Lestranges and Malfoys are related distantly to the Blacks. So there really should be some Potters somewhere along the line.
And I think Harry's a half-blood because Lily is a "mudblood" (sorry!), and his dad's not?

yeh, James can't be a pure-blood because he is not related to anyone! Dumbledore said that the Dursleys were the only relatives Harry had..plus, he would be related to...dun dun dun! Draco Malfoy!!! hehehe

Good point really, coz Sirius didn't mention the Potters when he was talking about the 'pure-bloods' so maybe James is muggle-born ... Eidan, I so did not have a go at you!!!  All I said was, if obscene language ain't allowed...mudblood shouldn't be either coz thats obscene...by wizarding standards anyway!!! Anyways, IM me if you're on later! |

I just thought yesterday to post it, but you are just too fast, anyway, then Lily would have to be a pureblood, remember, Harry is a half-blood, so, that puts up my theory on teh first page about Lily being adopted... hmm..., maybe

yarrg, maybe....that would make sense why Petunia was so jealous as well, because they paid more attention to her, who, as Petunia would see it, wasn't even their own child....Petunia is very short-sighted in the big picture, isn't she?

And she did say that "my parents were so proud they had a witch in the family" - my parents? right.

yes, but that may just be because she didn't consider Lily as part of her family...

[glow=red,2,300]I think Lilly is muggle born, and James may have some muggle blood in him, but not as much as Lilly[/glow]
