Toonmili: I agree that there isn't anything plain and bold in canon
that says that Snape knows Andromeda but we can assume that he did from
the infomation given about her and the Blacks. They were in the same
house so it's not a stretch to imagine that he knew her.

As for Tonks beign taught by Snape, that's not speculation, that's
fact. Unless Snape took a 7 year vaction.

I think this will come into play at some point.
