Ladies of Hogwarts' Class of '87: Where Are They Now?

It’s been almost a year since we saw the ladies of class of 1887 leave the walls of Hogwarts. Many of the ladies debuted and immediately became frequent faces at social outings; others chose to attend finishing school to refine their talents, skills, and manners before debuting; and a select few set forth the question: “What happened to the ladies of 1887?” with their unconventional or outright embarrassing choices! Today Witch Weekly will be giving you a peek into the current lives of the ladies of 1887!

Many of Hogwarts 1887 graduates chose the more conservative path of finishing school — and a majority of them were Slytherins! We shouldn’t say we’re surprised: Slytherins are known for their ambitious natures, and what better to assure a life as a successful socialite than to make their home at Pendergast’s School for Young Roses? Among the 1887 enrollments were the Lécuyer twins, Miss Mirielle Lécuyer and Miss Odette Lécuyer! The former is known for being a bit of a wildcard, and we here hope finishing school will be able to correct her unseemly habits before she graduates, lest she end up like her more questionable yearmates.

Miss Clarissa Cosgrove — simply a friendly Rose, or one searching for a beau before she debuts?

Miss Clarissa Cosgrove, the former Slytherin prefects, also attends Pendergast’s School for Young Roses and has been recently seen in the company of Mr. Albert Pettigrew! We at Witch Weekly cannot decide whether her tactics of approaching gentleman before her own debut are genius or a sign of desperation: what do our readers think?

Some of 1887’s graduates chose the more traditional path of an immediate debut, some choosing to attend the Hogwarts Coming Out Ball, while others had more private balls. Miss Nora Abercrombie, Miss Lucille Flint, and Miss Helga Scamander — all former Hufflepuffs who shared a dorm while at school! — were seen spending time with one another at the Witches of Hogsmeade Hospital Association Annual Spring Luncheon last week!

Miss Nora Abercrombie — or will be soon be seeing her as Mrs. Nora Lestrange? It certainly would be an ideal catch!

While none of the three ladies have yet found success on the social scene, Witch Weekly can report that Miss Nora Abercrombie was at the Lestrange’s family home over Easter, despite her minimal relation to the family. Perhaps she’s found a prospective husband who’s related to the powerful, pure-blooded clan! We can only wish the same for the other two!

Despite debuting during the summer of 1887, Miss Regina Lacey has rarely been seen on the social scene since her debut! We’re surprised rumors about her absence haven’t began circulating sooner — you don’t think her associated with less reputable ladies has caused her to fall down a similar slippery slope, do you?

Many other ladies have take far less conventional, and arguably embarrassing paths. Miss Bella Scrimgeour has seemingly made no attempts to change public opinion of her since her debut; rumors have been circulating that she’s been seen at the Augurey Beak Café in London, a known hangout spot for political radicals, men with questionable morals, and rumored criminals! If her parents were smart, they’d have her married off to a gentleman who can control her embarrassing behavior — and soon!

Her behavior could only be rivaled by one of her friends, Miss Terpsichore Van Helsing, who has forsaken any expectations placed upon young woman of her status by seeking employment as a hit witch at the Ministry. You’d think she too would seek to change public opinion about her family, but she’s only managed to fan the flames!

Her sister, Miss Persephone Van Helsing, has only made marginally better choices than her sister: rather than becoming a hit witch, she now works for the Department of Mysteries. Her decision to purpose an occupation is certainly as mysterious to us as the nature of her job!
