Harry Potter Family Tree — The Black, Potter, Weasley and Malfoy Lines
The Harry Potter family tree is not one tree. It is four families whose marriages, estrangements and loyalties decide the war. Each network here is drawn from canon relations — open a family and follow the lines.

The four families

Each family is a separate network because each one answers a different question. The Blacks explain blood purity and its cost. The Potters explain loss and chosen family. The Weasleys explain what an ordinary, loving home does for a boy who never had one. The Malfoys explain how money and fear hold a family together until the war breaks it.

House of Black

The pure-blood family that produced both a blood traitor and the Dark Lord's most devoted follower. Sirius, Regulus and the three sisters: Bellatrix, Narcissa and the disowned Andromeda.

Why a network instead of a poster

  • The relations are data, not drawing.Every edge is an explicit pair in the page data. The lines cannot drift to the wrong person, which is exactly what happens when an image model is asked to draw a family tree.
  • Switch the view.The whole family, the bloodline only, the Malfoys, or the war as it touches each house — each view is a filter over the same graph.
  • Click a face.Each portrait opens the character, their role, and the relations around them.
  • It works on a phone.Nodes stay tappable, labels reflow, and the graph zooms without losing the lines.

Questions

  • Is this canon? The relations follow the books. Where the films or later material add a connection, the page prefers the books and says so in the character description.
  • Why are there four networks? A single graph with every character becomes unreadable. Four family networks keep each line legible and let the page answer four different search intents.
  • Can I see the whole tree at once? Yes — the hub page links all four, and the Black network includes the branches that connect to the Malfoys and the Potters.
  • Can I make one for another family? Yes. The same format takes any world with named characters and canon relations, and builds the nodes, edges and portraits from that data.

Open the interactive tree

Start with the hub, or jump straight into House of Black.

Create your own family tree

Start with a world you love. The relationship-network skill builds the nodes, edges and portraits from the world's own characters.

✦Relationship Network
Use the relationship-network skill to build an interactive family tree for e.g. Harry Potter — every canon relation, each character with their own portrait.
