All these ideas are great, but something "bewitchedbyhp" said in
his/her last post caught my eyes: BLOOD LINES (my emphasis)(the line
Harry wrote in his blood) and where have we seen the importance of
blood lines as in lineage. Actually, all through the series, but most
recently at 12 Grimmauld Pl with the Black Family Tree. There's a
connection there somehow, I just can't figure it out. Any help is
encouraged. Possibly a link between HP & LV? (other than the GOF
blood swapping thing. Maybe, relatives?

There is a wizard geneology book back at the OOTP headquarters that
someone will probably read in book 6 or 7. Sirius uses the book to
smash a spiderlike thing that grabs onto Harry (during the house
decontamination chapter). Maybe someone will trace back their origins
and make a startling discovery.
Here is the page that mentions the book--
p116, U.S. version, OOTP: "Sirius seized it (a spider like instrument
on Harry's arm) and smashed it with a heavy book entitled Nature's
Nobility: A Wizarding Genealogy."
Some fans have suggested that Harry is related to Slytherin via his
mother, Lily. The books keep mentioning how Harry looks like his
father, except for his eyes which are like his mother's. The eyes
might be a Salazar Slytherin trait.
