Tonight in London, the Black Family Tree that Harry Potter author JK Rowling sketched and donated to Book Aid International was on display for the public to preview before tomorrow's auction. A report by a fan who attended the preview is now available online, with additional names and details that were previously withheld.
Here's a tidbit of the fan report regarding those seven names that were burned-off -- the "black sheep", as mentioned in Order of the Phoenix (numbered to match with those marks on this image of the tree):
The fan report, with a full listing of the other members of the Black family, is now available at HP Lexicon
. For additional information regarding tomorrow's auction of this JK Rowling sketch, please visit Bloomsbury Auctions.

How very cool. The Black Family tree is one of those cool things andd details that makes the book come alive. I also can't wait to see what the Black family crest looks like. J.K. Rowling's didn't describe it to well.

That is so interesting. I have really been wondering who were in those spaces. I love all of the background information. These details in the books are what keeps me so intrigued. You never know what is going to happen and I love it!

That is interesting to know because it could help with the outcome of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince before the next and final book which I hope can tell the outcome of the Harry Potter series, and I can't wait to read it!!! :)

Maybe with the family tree we'll be able to see if there was someone in Sirius family with the intials R.A.B, (just saying) I can't believe that Sirius was distantly related to the Weasleys, although don't they say it in Ootp.

Oh, that is some funny information. I wonder how much the tree is going to sell off for tomorrow. Probably will be very expensive.

"Alphard, who 'gave gold to his runaway nephew'" I loved that! They didn't even mention Sirius' name. Poor Blacks.
