Me:

Here's something I haven't seen suggested, at least not in the 
current thread regarding teacher's spouses.

If Hogwarts is quite large, with rooms that appear and disappear, 
what's to say there aren't whole apartments scattered here and there 
that can only be accessed by those who have a special spell?  There 
could be spouses and families living on premisis that are never seen 
by students.

They could come and go (shopping, jobs outside) without being seen.  
There are other means of becoming invisible without using a cloak, 
Dumbledore said this, but I can't remember where. They can't apparate 
into Hogwarts, but there could be a hidden passage out, and then 
either portkeys used or apparation to jobs in London or Diagon Alley 
or Hogsmead.

Donna, who thinks Dumbledore knows a few more tunnels (and a good mny 
other places) than even Fred and George, and thinks him and 
McGonagall would make a good pair.
