Unidentified two elderly Wizengamot witches

"The members of the Wizengamot were muttering. All eyes were now on Dumbledore. Some looked annoyed, others slightly frightened; two elderly witches in the back row, however, raised their hands and waved in welcome."

- Description.

These two elderly women were witches and members of the Wizengamot in the mid-1990s. They seemed to be friendly with Albus Dumbledore, and were not influenced by the Ministry's campaign to discredit Dumbledore and Harry Potter. On 12 August, they were present at Harry Potter's disciplinary hearing. When Dumbledore arrived at Courtroom Ten in his capacity as witness for the defence, these two witches waved to him in welcome.

Behind the scenes

 * One of these two witches may be Professor Griselda Marchbanks, who knew Dumbledore since his youth and was one of the Wizengamot elders at the time of the hearing.
