While I have no doubt that Harry wouldn't consciously want to meet any 
of his aunt's family, I must respectfully disagree that the mirror 
folks are all Potters.  He clearly see other eyes like his and we've 
been told countless times that he looks just like his father but with 
his mother's eyes.  

I'm not completely sold on the Moaning Myrtle Evans theory simply 
because of the timeline.  Someone (sorry I don't have the post to 
quote) postulated she may be the oldest sister but that seems a 
stretch.  So is she Lily's aunt?  Cousin?  Bueller?
