Good catch there - I had forgotten about Barty Jr. He was about 19 at 
his Pensieve trial, so he would have been Regulus' age, a couple 
years younger than Snape. But we have no idea which house. 

It is interesting that Snape recognized him; I thought DEs weren't 
supposed to know each other by sight. But then, Karkaroff was able to 
name plenty of names, and of course Barty Jr. was working with the 
Lestranges at the time of his arrest.
