Evan and Wilkes were killed not long after Igor was captured meaning they died around 1980 to 1981.
- ↑ Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Dean Thomas' father left his Muggle wife and child shortly after Dean was born to protect them from Death Eaters and was murdered not long after. Dean was born sometime between September 1 1979 to August 31 1980 so his father died around the same time too.
