Weasley Cousin discussion anyone?

I read in a JKR interview that she had planned to introduce a 
Weasley Cousin. There were a few posts concerning Nymphydora 
Tonks,which we know from OOP Ch. 6 is related to thwe Weasleys, but 
so are the Malfoys, Blacks, Lestranges, and probably every pureblood 
English family.

My guess for a Weasley cousin is a student who we are told has two 
wizard parents and lives near Ottery St. Catchpole.... Luna 
Lovegood! She's my favorite new character and has much more depth of 
character development than Cho Chang. 

Ok, we don't KNOW that Luna lives there, but from GOF we know that a 
family named Lovegood lives there (Amos Diggory mentioned them right 
before the portkey)

I think the cousin JKR mentioned would be a classmate of Harry, not 
an auror 5 years older. However as far as Weasley cousins, there is 
no shortage of them in the inbred pureblood families. 

BTW did we ever find out whether the Potters were related to Black? 
I look forward to book 6 & 7 to find out more about them.
