I didn't actually associate Susan Bones with the Bones that Hagrid refers to
in the first book (wouldn't he have described them as the Boneses if their
names were Bones rather than Bone). The allusion that struck me about the
Bones that Voldemort killed is that (almost certainly by pure coincidence)
that two of the leading contributors to Witchcraft in the UK in modern times
were also named Bone (Rae and Gavin of that ilk, no relation to each other
as it happens).

I'm sure this is pure synchronicity btw...
