50-some years prior to HP - Hagrid and Tom M. Riddle were at Hogwarts.
Almost 50 years prior to HP - Eileen Prince was at Hogwarts.
At least 10 years after that - Snape, J. Potter, Lily, Remus and Sirius were at Hogwarts.

Somebody with wizarding parents who displays no magical talent.

I don't know how many Chicagoistas spend their time downtown, but I have found my new favorite used book store: After Words on Illinois. New & used books upstairs, a giant basement of used books downstairs, and a store cat.
