"Ancestor" of a person who lived centuries before his time? Now 
that's a very Rowlingian slip!

I think a lot of the significance of this fact comes through in that 
it is Lily's love for Harry that is protecting him and thus needs to 
be maintained by Harry living in an Evans household. After all, 
James died to protect Harry too, didn't he? But if his love had the 
same effect, then Harry could be placed in any number of wizarding 
households, possibly including the Weasleys! Hmmm Harry raised in a 
loving wizarding environment... no we wouldn't want that, would we?

You know, personally, I'm fairly convinced that the position of a 
respected and trusted wizard comes with neutral territory. In other 
words, I'm pretty sure the Ollivanders could be a family that 
doesn't join and is never asked to join conflicts. Think about it, 
if they were on a side, they could simply refuse to provide wands 
for the other side. Since Ollivander's wands are the best, that 
would give his side an advantage, wouldn't it? So, I'm pretty sure, 
Ollivanders are most likely to be neutral.
