Carol:
On the contrary, the MoM has already shown that it has no record of
Mrs. Figg, a squib at least one of whose parents must have been a
witch or wizard. It quite likely has no record of Mark's family,
either, since they have been either squibs or muggles for several
generations.

The MoM would not necessarily have access to the book that records the
births of magical children, which is kept at Hogwarts.

Carol, who is wondering why you don't want little Mark to be important
and how you can discount his age and name, which seem to me to be
obvious clues to his significance
