Notes and references
- ↑ Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince showed Ernie attending Potions on 21 April, 1996 with Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, and all other students who were not old enough to take their Apparition tests. Thus, he must have been born in 1980.
- ↑ Presumption is based on these students beginning at Hogwarts in 1991, meaning they were born between 1 September 1979 and 1 September 1980.
- ↑ It is never stated what year Smith is in, but the fact that he was still attending Hogwarts for the 1997–1998 school year means that he could not have been above Harry Potter. Smith fleeing from the Battle of Hogwarts also suggests that he was probably not under-age at the time, since under-age wizards and witches were instructed to leave. However, Smith's fleeing could simply be indicative of his fear at the time, and some under-age students did participate in the battle, such as Colin Creevey.
