The first wand of Neville Longbottom was inherited from his father, Frank Longbottom as he was unable to use it. Its length, wood, and core material are unknown.
Neville used this wand from 1991 to June of 1996, when it was broken by Death Eater Antonin Dolohov during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, along with Neville's nose. Neville used an incapitated Hermione Granger's wand for the rest of the battle.[1]
Neville soon purchased a new wand from Ollivander.
Powers
The wand was used by Frank Longbottom when he was an auror, therefore showing that he could use powerful magic with it. However, its true powers were revealed when Frank and his wife were able to avoid Tom Marvolo Riddle, one of the most powerful wizards of all time, three times. Neville also was able to duel Death Eaters with it. However, though Frank would have achieved a Transfiguration O.W.L. to become an auror, when the wand is used by Neville, its powers in the subject of Transfiguration were lacking.
