Barebone family

The Barebone family was an American No-Maj family that descended from one of Scourers who evaded justice in the late 17th century by integrating into No-Maj society.

As with other Scourer-founded families studied by American wizarding historian Theophilus Abbot, the Barebones were marked by a profound belief in the existence of magic and an equally deep hatred of it, which they passed down the generations.

Family members

 * Bartholomew Barebone — 18th-century No-Maj who tricked Dorcus Twelvetrees, daughter of the Keeper of Treasure and Dragots, into revealing many details about the wizarding world, in what was one of the largest-ever breaches of the International Statute of Secrecy.
 * Mary Lou Barebone — active in the 1920s; led the New Salem Philanthropic Society, a fanatical group that sought to expose and destroy wizards and witches.
 * Credence Barebone — troubled adoptive son of Mary Lou Barebone.
