The Lexicon pointed out something else that might help you, this is
JKR's little world that she wants it. So IMO, because it's her
world, she may explain how harry came from a Wizard family (his
father) or she may not think it's very important for us to know. I
think in book 7, harry will get to see his family tree, like Blacks
tapestry. Maybe Harry will get his or get to see his when he is
close to being out of school. Lori
