Alla:

I could be wrong, very very wrong, but I am not even sure if it is a 
distant cousin, Sherry. I think on her website JKR said that she was 
planning such character to show up in the books, but then decided to 
put some other character in instead. Was it Luna? Not sure.

In any event, I heard the distant cousin somewhere, but I don't 
remember either which book mentions it. IF it is mentioned in the 
books at all.



Sherry:

I remember Ron telling Harry something about a cousin who is an accountant.
One of the early books.  Maybe even SS/PS.  I think that's how some
speculation that The Evans family could be distantly related to the Weasleys
got started.  i remember reading such a theory in my early days in this
group.  But it's never been mentioned again.  gone the way of all second
cousins I expect.
