aussie:

Fortescue, Florean (From Harry Potter Lexicon, http://www.hp-
lexicon.org/wizards/wizards-d-g.html ) Owned an ice cream parlor in 
Diagon Alley. Florean knows quite a bit about medieval wizardry; 

When Harry was living at the Leaky Cauldron (POA ch4) ... Florean gave 
him free sundaes every half hour and HELPED WITH HIS ESSAY ON MEDIEVIL 
WIZARDRY (PA4).  Fortescue was "dragged off" by Death Easters in the 
first weeks of the Second Wizarding War (late June or early July 1996 
[Y16]) (HBP6).

In his coming search for the remaining Horcruxes, Harry may well find  
Fortescue and get information on Griffindor's historical trinket.

What other secrets would LV want to drag out of him?

Side note on his name:

Fortescue is also a good site to study geneology from the Battle of 
Hastings (1066 - or 950 years ago) till today.
Also, Sir John Fortescue (1531-1607) was the first to enforce anti-
witchcraft laws in England under Queen Elizabeth I. 

Florean is a museum in Romania. But is the name Romanian or Italian?


(GOF ch 33) LV said "... I, who have gone further than anybody along 
the path that leads to immortality."  
hmm, to go further than anybody, including Flamel, does LV need 
Fortescue to unravel an historic clue?
