no no no...i meant that Lily and Petunia could have had a 
brother...and that Mark is the child of that brother.  Not that Mark 
himself was their brother, that wouldn't work.  It's just a theory.  
He could just be a distant cousin or something.  

I'm kind of expecting to see a first year by the name of Mark Evans 
being sorted at the beginning of the next book tho.
