HARRY POTTER
Harry James Potter was born on 31 July 1980, to James and Lily Potter (née Evans), two members of the original Order of the Phoenixat the height of the First Wizarding War, only hours after his classmate-to-be Neville Longbottom.[64]Lily and James went into hiding in late 1979when they discovered she was pregnant.[65]When Harry was born, Lily held a christening; it was quiet and quick, with only James, Lily, Harry, and Sirius Black in attendance.[66]Harry spent his infancy in hiding with his parents in the Potter Cottage at Godric’s Hollow in the West Country, England.
For Harry’s first birthday, Sirius bought him a toy broomstick. In Lily’s letter to Sirius, it mentioned that this broomstick had been Harry’s favorite present and that he had smashed a horrible vase that had been a gift from Petunia. In the letter, Lily also included a picture of Harry flying around on the broom and James chasing after him. Lily also stated in the letter that Harry looked pleased with himself while flying around on the toy broom. Lily and James also hosted a very quiet birthday tea. The only ones in attendance were them, Harry, and Bathilda Bagshot. Bathilda also used to dote on infant Harry. The Potters owned a cat, but it is unknown what happened to it after Voldemort’s attack.
