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.

Yay! I love hearing about the family tree. It's just so cool how people like Ron, Harry, and Draco could all be related! I wonder if Dumbledor came in there somewhere...

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.

This is brilliant! I love that JKR has thought absolutely everything through! I'd love to have a look through all her notes and doodles (after I've read book 7 of course). I love the attention to detail...

This is so interesting! I love when she adds to stuff on her site... it shows that she actually really cares about her fans! Maybe the Black Family Tree will play a great part in the next book!

And Daniel bought it! What a joke! Superb! I'm really pleased that this wonderful piece of Harry-background falls in just the right hands! Closer to Harry could Sirius' heritage not come! Classic!

That is really cool, I would have loved to see the Family Tree with my own eyes. However, that's too late now, since Mr. Radcliffe bought it :)
