Sorry. Brain dead. My point is, I've never heard of Tracey Davis and
wanted to know where Millicent is referred to as a *half* blood. That
question has been answered, sort of. It's apparently in her notes
somewhere (but I don't consider notes as canon since they're only an
aid to composing and writers often deviate from their original plans).
Is this Tracey person also in the notes? He/she has not appeared in
the books to my knowledge.

It would have helped to correct me *and* answer my question using
"half blood" instead of "mudblood." :-) Sorry to sound grouchy, but I
do know the difference between a "mudblood" and a halfblood. The
reason I didn't "pick on" the third member of the list, Tom Riddle, is
that I already knew his status as a half blood.

So, one more time. Who is Tracey Davis and how do we know that he or
she is a half blood?
