Biography
Early life
Donaghan Tremlett was born in 1972 to Muggle parents.[2] He began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1983 or 1984.[3]
Later life
Donaghan played bass for the popular wizarding band The Weird Sisters. On Christmas Day in 1994, the band attended the Yule Ball at Hogwarts,[4] where they played classic hits like "Magic Works" and "This Is The Night," as well as a new song titled "Do The Hippogriff."[5]
Donaghan married a woman in September 1995. The wedding was mentioned in the Daily Prophet.[6]
In June 1997, Donaghan attended the funeral of Albus Dumbledore, and was one of several familiar people Harry Potter noticed among the crowd.[7]
After the Ministry of Magic was taken over by Lord Voldemort in September 1997, Donaghan, as a Muggle-born, presumably faced charges before the Muggle-Born Registration Commission. He may have been sent to Azkaban, or else gone into hiding, like many others of his heritage.
