Montague is the surname of a British family with at least one magical member. The family's blood status is unknown, but since Graham Montague was Sorted into Slytherin, it is unlikely (though not impossible^[1]) that he came from a completely Muggle background.

Family MembersEdit

• Graham Montague — a Slytherin student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the 1990s
• Mr. Montague — father of Graham
• Mrs. Montague — mother of Graham

EtymologyEdit

The surname Montague means "pointed hill" in Old French, from the elements mont, "hill", and agu, "pointed."^[2] In the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, the Montagues are an Italian family locked in a violent feud with another clan, the Capulets. Romeo, a Montague, falls in love with Juliet, a Capulet, with tragic consequences.
