husband though, unless  OotP clears it up. I don't have the book on 
me to check.  Either man could be a possibility.

Mandy here:
Forgive me my post was badly written, and I realized after I hit send 
that what I meant was actually something else.  What I meant was, do 
we know which of the two men is Rodolphus (Bella's husband)and which 
is Rastsban (her brother-in-law)? The thickset man who stared blankly 
or nervous looking man?  I think perhaps the OotP might have 
descriptions of the two men in either the chapter where Harry looks 
at their mug-shot in the Daily Prophet, or the battle in the MoM. I 
can't remember with out my copy of the book.

her brother-in-law.

Mandy here:
I found it in the Lexicon under People (found in the side bar), then 
under Death Eaters.  There is a whole paragraph on Bellatrix and the 
references I found on her being in Slytherin at Hogwarts and meeting 
Rodolphus there.

Cheers Mandy.
