Harry and Voldemort Related?

HermioneAnnGranger · June 2009

Well on my first read of Harry Potter books one to seven I noticed something.

Marvolo Gaunt, Voldemorts grandfather, was related to Prewett (The deathly Hallow Brothers). They were related from way back.

But also, I noticed that the invisibility cloak, the one that had been passed from generation to generation in Harry's family, originated from the Third Prewett Brother. In that case, Harry is realted to The Prewett Family as Voldemort is.

So, Harry and Voldemort are related, are they not?!

Yes they are, but incredibly distantly.

well if voldermorts the heir or slytherin then the Prewett brothers must of been related too maybe? and that means Harry is related to Salazar Slytherin .. wow theirs so much that is in the books but you never spot

Yes, a lot of stuff I never spotted before. It's just a bit odd knowing that Harry and Voldemort are related, no matter how far off.

A magical society is not so big, so practically all are relatives in some degree...)
