Isobel Ross, esposa de Robert McGonagall, viveu como trouxa.
Isobel Ross se apaixonou e se casou com um ministro trouxa. Ela se tornou uma dona de casa e viveu com ele, tendo desistido do mundo mágico.
Isobel and Robert moved into a manse (minister’s house) on the outskirts of Caithness, where the beautiful Isobel proved surprisingly adept at making the most of the minister’s tiny salary.

Ela manteve a varinha em uma caixa trancada e não usou magia - por um tempo ela nem contou ao marido que podia.
Isobel was torn between pride and fear. She knew that she must confess the truth to Robert before he witnessed something that would alarm him. At last, in response to Robert’s patient questioning, Isobel burst into tears, retrieved her wand from the locked box under her bed and showed him what she was.

Mesmo depois que ela revelou que era uma bruxa, ela não parecia voltar a usar magia.
Não está claro por quanto tempo ela viveu como trouxa, mas pareceu ser um bom tempo - ela começou antes de sua filha ser ambas, e parecia estar na mesma vila trouxa 20 anos depois, depois que Minerva completou dezoito anos. e passou dois anos trabalhando no Ministério antes de se tornar professor em Hogwarts.Now estranged from her family, Isobel could not bring herself to mar the bliss of the honeymoon by telling her smitten new husband that she had graduated top of her class in Charms at Hogwarts, nor that she had been Captain of the school Quidditch team. She sensed, too, how much of a strain it was for her mother to fit in with the all-Muggle village, and how much she missed the freedom of being with her kind, and of exercising her considerable talents.

Nevertheless, it was a shock to learn from the oblivious Isobel (in the middle of a chatty letter of local news) that Dougal had married the daughter of another farmer.

Nunca é mencionado se ela voltou a usar magia, mas passou mais de 20 anos naquela aldeia trouxa, onde era "incapaz de exercer seus talentos consideráveis".
