> OK, I'm writing because I'm a bit concerned about something. You 
see Sirius described his Great-great-grandfather, Phineas Nigellus, 
as being the "least popular headmaster Hogwarts ever had" and he's 
part of Sirius's 'mudblood/half-breed hating' family yet I found 
that I kinda liked him <<

I liked him too.  I think Sirius' general antipathy for his whole 
family led him to dislike Phineas even though Phineas may not have 
really deserved it.  (Note that there's no indication that Sirius 
ever knew Phineas personally, rather than just by reputation.)
