My pet theory is that we only know part of the truth about the blood
magic that keeps Harry safe at Privet drive. He is in the care of one
of three adults virtually the whole time - Petunia, Dumbledore or
Molly Weasley and it would not surprise me to find that there is a
hidden relationship between these three people.

Tonks now:
That is an interesting observation. I never really noticed that 
about one of the 3 of them always being with him or in the same 
location (house, castle, etc.) In CS it describes Albus when he was 
a younger man and he has auburn hair. The Weasley's have red hair, 
and I think Lily had auburn hair too. Maybe there is some link there.
But we know that Harry has no other relatives or at least none on 
his mothers side which is where the blood protect resides.

Also since all the old wizarding families are inter-related I have 
wondered about the Potters, Blacks and Snape families. Wouldn't it 
be a kicker if Snape turned out to be Harry's uncle or something?

I wonder if Voldemort is working his way down the Potter
bloodline, and whether this is connected the fact he is also killing
off all his own known relatives?

Tonks now:
I have suggested this in the past. LV is the last of the Slytherin 
line. But there could be another line in the family. There has got 
to be a reason he went there to kill James and Harry and not Lily. I 
know, I know the prophesy, but how else do we explain that Lily 
didn't have to die. LV isn't that nice of a guy.
