On her Famous Witch card, Beatrix Bloxam's death year is printed as 1810, which would mean that she died in her teens. The picture, however, shows an old woman. In his notes on The Wizard and the Hopping Pot, Albus Dumbledore dates her death on 1910 (BB); we assume that this date is correct and that the 1810 date is a printing error.
It is likely that Pollux Black's birth year is a mistake, given that his daughter Walburga is born only thirteen years later (BFT).
