London Granddaughter:

Am I correct that we don't yet know how Voldy was defied by Lily and
James (or the Longbottoms) 3 times?

Do we expect this to be a vital part of the story in book 7?

Lynda:

I think, from all the inferences in canon that we do know that both James
and Lily Potter and the Longbottoms had defied Voldemort three times. At
least that's what I have understood from multiple readings of all the books
and much analysis. It doesn't always have to be in bold print to be in the
realm of the story after all.
