BIOGRAPHY:
Lily J. Potter (née Evans) was a Muggle-born witch, the younger daughter of Mr and Mrs Evans and the younger sister of Petunia Evans, who would later be the person who would take care of Lily's son. She learned that she was a witch as a child, after Severus Snape (a wizard boy who lived nearby) recognised her as such and told her of the existence of magic. Lily attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1971-1978. She was Sorted into Gryffindor House and was a member of the Slug Club. In her seventh year Lily was made Head Girl and began dating James Potter.
After Hogwarts she married James and they had a son, Harry James Potter, of whom she made Sirius Black the godfather. The couple, along with their friends Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew joined the Order of the Phoenix during the First Wizarding War; she and her husband defied Lord Voldemort himself three times. However, Lily and James were forced to go into hiding after a prophecy was made concerning Lord Voldemort and their infant son. She and James were betrayed by Pettigrew, and thus both were murdered by Voldemort on Hallowe'en night in 1981, while trying to protect their son.
Lily briefly appeared again through the Resurrection Stone in May 1998. She appeared along with James (her husband), Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin. After the end of the Second Wizarding War Lily had three grandchildren through her son: James Sirius Potter, Albus Severus Potter, and Lily Luna Potter, the last of whom was named in memory of her.
❝Not only was she a singularly gifted witch, she was also an uncommonly kind woman.❞ –Remus Lupin
