Leopoldina Smethwyck (1829 - 1910) was the first witch in Britain to ever referee a Quidditch match. For this reason, she is featured on a Famous Wizard Card.
[edit] Behind the scenes
- The first time she refereed occurred some time before the Women's Rights Movement, although this might not matter in the wizarding world.
- She may be related to Elliot Smethwyck or Hippocrates Smethwyck or both, as they share the same surname.
