The house elves are treated as property, as a slave,
but most house 
elves we have been introduced to WANT to belong to a
family. Dobby 
was a bit of a one of, because he wanted to be free
and paid for his 
work. I took house elf to mean an elf that belonged
to a family, 
that served around the family home. As far as Ron's
comment about 
elves being found in manors, etc., I took that to mean
it was usually 
wealthy families who owned house elves. As far as
Sirius' relatives, 
we know Dobby is devoted to Bellatrix and the other
"cousins". I am 
curious as to how Hogwarts' house elves came to be
there. Dobby 
was "hired" to work there, and he got Winky a job
there, but all the 
others? There must be hundreds that work at
Hogwarts... Anyway, 
back to Kreacher... I was thinking he has probably
done all the 
damage he can do, unless he IS kept at Grimmauld Place
AND the OoTP 
continue to use the house. WHat about you all?

My reply:  Kreacher is not loyal to all of the other
cousins.  Just Bella and Narcissa obviously.  I'm sure
his opinion of Andromeda is very similar to his of
Sirius.
