MercuryBlue:
Seen the sketch of the Black family tree that JKR made? There were 
seven people marked as being burned off the tapestry, as I recall. 
Three were women who were disowned for marrying people the Black 
family didn't approve of. We can ignore Cedrella, whose chosen husband 
was a blood traitor and therefore implied to be a pureblood, and we 
might be able to ignore Isla, who married a Muggle.

But look at Andromeda. The tree tells us she also married a Muggle. 
Andromeda's daughter, however, tells us that Ted Tonks is Muggle-BORN.
