I for a while thought that Regulus Black was alive. But after thinking
about it. Wouldnt the magic that protects the Grimwald Place have
recognized this, and not given itself to Harry?

  Well, I am banking on the idea that Sirius thought Regulus was dead. So, Sirius' magic that bypassed any Black to let Grimmauld Place and Kreacher come directly to Harry, would have bypassed Regulus as well. Actually, that works even if Sirius knew Regulus was alive. 
  Grimmauld Place was unable to bypass Sirius' wishes, as was Kreacher, to avoid being Harry's property. I am certain both would have preferred to have remained in the Black family line. But as Dumbledore says (paraphrasing)to Harry in HBP, "Looks like Sirius knew what he was doing." Sirius' magic was powerful enough to bypass Belletrix, so that would encompass any other living Black, as well, I assume. 
  That was sort of rambling...but the main point is that Grimmauld Place and Kreacher could not make their own choices. Sirius gave them to Harry, and that was that. So, I don't think that disproves that Regulus could be alive. 
  Counting the minutes and seconds until Friday night, and then wishing Friday would never come because then it will all be over and we'll never have another new Potter book, but then again wishing Friday would come quicker, Katie
