Marci again:

The description given of the family that appeared in the Mirror of 
Erised was definitely that of a Potter clan.  Harry saw glasses, dark 
messy hair, knobbly knees, etc.  My theory is that Myrtle is an 
Evans, and in his heart of hearts, I doubt Harry would desire to meet 
any of his aunt's relatives.
