	Frank Podmore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Frank Podmore (5 February 1856 - 14 August 1910) was an English author, founding member of the Fabian Society, and writer on psychic matters.
		Born at Elstree, Hertfordshire, Podmore was the son of Thompson Podmore, headmaster of Eastbourne College.

		Frank and Alice Longbottom are the parents of Neville Longbottom, a Gryffindor boy in the same year as Harry Potter at Hogwarts.
		Their success, however, was cut short, as Frank and Alice were tortured into insanity by a group of Death Eaters including Bartemius Crouch Jr., led by Bellatrix Lestrange, sending Neville to his grandmother's while his parents went to St Mungo's where they have resided ever since.
		Frank's wand was used by Neville while he attended Hogwarts until it was broken in Order of the Phoenix in the Department of Mysteries, by the Death Eater Antonin Dolohov.

	ISS: Daniel Dunglas Home: Frank Podmore
		Amongst Home's social accomplishments it must be mentioned that he was a good performer on the piano; and that his recitations, whether in the drawing-room or on the platform, are said by competent judges to have been distinguished by brilliant dramatic faculty and power of emotional expression.
		Even on those who were brought only into momentary contact with him he produced commonly the impression of frankness and sincerity[11]: in those who stood in more frequent and intimate relations with him the confidence which he inspired seems to have been unlimited.
		The belief in the honesty of the performer became for them hardly less instinctive than the belief in the trustworthiness of the senses which took note of the performance.

		Likewise, socialists such as Pease and Podmore were active members of the Society for Psychical Research, whilst various plebeian radicals and Owenites went on to embrace all of secularism, socialism, and spiritualism.
