The Bixby family was a prosperous magical family that was active in Wizarding Britain from the 17th to the 19th centuries. The Bixby family first came into prominence after Hugo Bixby made a fortune through arbitrage in the apothecary market. The ancestral home of the Bixbys was the estate at White Oaks. The Bixby family line was extinguished when the last of the line, Donnell Bixby, passed away in 1900.
