The family's only known representative was sorted into [[Ravenclaw]] House. Her presence is noted during key events in the 1994-1995 school year. Their blood status, allegiance, and history remain unknown. =====Known History===== The Fawcett name appears exclusively in records of the 1994-1995 school year at [[Hogwarts]]. * **[[Triwizard Tournament]] Sign-ups (October 1994):** The name S. Fawcett was on a list of [[Ravenclaw]] students who were old enough and intended to put their names into the [[Goblet of Fire]] for the [[Triwizard Tournament]]. This indicates that she was at least seventeen years old at the time. * **The [[Yule Ball]] ([[Christmas]] 1994):** Later that year, a Miss Fawcett attended the [[Yule Ball]]. She was discovered by [[Professor Snape]] in the prize rose bushes outside the castle with Stebbins, a student from [[Hufflepuff]]. [[Snape]] accused them of "canoodling" and docked fifty points each from [[Ravenclaw]] and [[Hufflepuff]], ordering them both back to their respective [[Common Room]]s. It is presumed that S. Fawcett and Miss Fawcett are the same individual. =====Known Members===== * **S. Fawcett:** The only known member of the family. She was a [[Ravenclaw]] student at [[Hogwarts]] during [[Harry Potter]]'s fourth year. Based on her eligibility for the [[Triwizard Tournament]], she would have been in her sixth or seventh year. The books provide no information on her physical appearance, personality, or magical skills beyond what would be expected of a student studying for their [[N.E.W.T.]]s. =====Relationships===== * **Stebbins:** Miss Fawcett attended the [[Yule Ball]] with a [[Hufflepuff]] student named Stebbins. Their interaction in the rose bushes suggests a romantic connection. =====Etymology===== The surname //Fawcett// is an English locational surname. It originates from several places, particularly in the historical counties of Westmorland and Yorkshire. The name is derived from the Old English words //fāg//, meaning 'multi-coloured' or 'dappled', and //side//, meaning 'hillside'. =====Behind the Scenes===== The Fawcett family and its sole known member serve as background characters in the series, helping to create a more populated and realistic [[Hogwarts]] environment. Their minor appearances add flavour to events like the lead-up to the [[Triwizard Tournament]] and the drama of the [[Yule Ball]]. No additional information about this family has been provided in films, video games, or by J.K. Rowling.
