Barty Crouch Jr., the son of the minister of magic was born 1962. He is really smart so he could skip the third year of Hogwarts. So he is in fourth year now, in the same year as Regulus Black, Evan Rosier, Pandora Rosier and Dorcas Meadowes. They became close friends. Barty is now 13 years, Regulus and Pandora are 14 and Evan and Dorcas are 15.
