JKR says he's not a 'close' relative.  Now, that kind of qualification by JKR immediately flags 
up to me the question 'oh, so he could still be a *distant* relation then.'  Or it may mean 
they're not related at all, of course, but I don't think it rules out a distant connection.

> Okay, Hannah, I can go there with you.  Just because Harry is not a descendent of 
Slytherin, doesn't mean he can't be somehow connected to LV in another way.  In 
answering that rumor, JKR never said "NO NO NO there is no relation between Harry and 
LV" --she merely states that James is for sure Harry's father and Harry is not a descendant 
of SalSly.  If there was no relation she may have been sure to squash the rumor right then.  
I am liking this theory more and more.  Now--anyone out there want to point out 
something obvious that we've overlooked?

Antosha:

Well, I actually rather like this theory, but one problem with it does occur to me: if LV is a 
cousin of Lily's, than why would living with Lily's blood relations protect Harry from him? 
And why would getting an infusion of Harry's blood make any difference?
