Excluding Neville (who isn't an orphan, just parentless), the three orphans are all half-bloods. AND the wizard parent (or the pureblood wizard in Harry's case) was the first to die in all three. That's a rather interesting parallel.




It would be interesting, none the less, to know which of Neville's parents was tortured first.  We know that the Longbottoms are Pureblood, but is there anything in canon about Alice's family?
