Mrs. Finnigan is a witch and the mother of Seamus Finnigan. She only told her husband that she was able to do magic after she had married, which came as a nasty shock to him.[2]

Biography

1994

In 1994, Mrs. Finnigan attended the Quidditch World Cup with her son, and was introduced to Harry Potter for the first time. She and her son supported the Irish National Quidditch team, who defeated Bulgaria.[3]

1995

A reader of the Daily Prophet, Mrs. Finnigan believed the series of slanders and lies they told against Harry Potter and Albus Dumbledore in the summer of 1995, and seriously considered not allowing Seamus to go back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the September of the same year.[4]

1997

In 1997, following the death of Albus Dumbledore, Mrs. Finnigan tried to take Seamus out of school and bring him home before the Headmaster's funeral. Seamus refused, leading to a blazing argument. Mrs. Finnigan eventually compromised, allowing him to attend the funeral on the condition that they go home right after.[5]
