"Ma adopted Modesty out of here. From a family of twelve. She still misses her brothers and sisters. She still talks about them."
— Credence describing her family[src]

The biological father of Modesty Barebone lived with his wife and ten children in a tenement in the Bronx in the 1910s.[1] However, Modesty was adopted by Mary Lou Barebone, a No-Maj anti-witchcraft activist, possibly because the family had more children than they could care for or were magical.[1]
