In canon, is it established that
Voldemort killed Susan Bones'
grandparents, or was it her parents?
I'm fairly certain it is her grandparents,
but for the life of me I cannot find the
reference. Thanks in advance for any
replies.
Tom replied:
The only passage I can recall that explicitly mentions the Bones
family is in PS/SS, Ch.4, 55/56 (I'm using the US paperback.) Hagrid
is explaining to Harry about Voldemort's reign of terror, upon their
first meeting:
"...No one ever lived after he decided to kill 'em, no one except
you, an' he'd killed some o' the best witches an' wizards of the
age - the McKinnons, the Bones, the Prewetts - an' you were only a
baby, an' you lived."
I can't find a specific reference to how (or even if) the Susan
Bones in Hufflepuff of Harry's year is actually related to the Bones
family that Hagrid mentions in that passage.
Me: JKR said in an interview or a chat board that those Bones were Susan's granparents.
