Fleamont family

Fleamont was the surname of a pure-blood or half-blood wizarding family. The mother of Henry Potter, who was born a Fleamont, asked on her deathbed for him to preserve her maiden name so it would not die out. Henry honored her request by naming his son Fleamont Potter.

Family history
Not much is known about the early history of the Fleamont family. Henry Potter's mother was a witch who married into the Potter family; she had one son, Henry, who served on the Wizengamot from 1913 to 1921. He caused a minor controversy by publicly condemning Archer Evermonde's decision to forbid the wizarding community from aiding Muggles during World War I.

Harry Potter, best known for his famous defeat of the Dark wizard Lord Voldemort, is a descendant of this family.
