Jessamine was an witch who attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the early 19th century.

Biography[]

Jessamine attended Hogwarts in the 1820s. At one point, she joined an art club which met in a secret room behind a Welsh portrait in the Grand Staircase. Also in the club was Simon Talmadge, Gwydion Idris, and Mnemosyne. Jessamine designed clothing which she put on half-dressed mannequins and liked to sew at the long table. She was also friends with Gossamer. In the 2008–2009 school year, Gossamer returned for the first time in 183 years to find the room in ruin. Jessamine's designs were no longer there.[3]

  1. Gossamer says in the 2008–2009 school year that they attended Hogwarts 183 years earlier. This would be in or around 1825-1826. To be attending Hogwarts then, Jessamine had to be born in or around 1810 depending on what year they were in.
