Cygnus Black III (1938–1992) was a pure-blood wizard and a member of the noble House of Black. He was the youngest son of Pollux Black and Irma Crabbe and the youngest brother of Walburga and Alphard, who was later blasted off the family tapestry. He married Druella Rosier, and the couple had three daughters: Bellatrix, Andromeda, and Narcissa.
He was a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and was sorted into Slytherin house.

Through his disowned daughter and his youngest daughter, Cygnus was the grandfather of Nymphadora Tonks and Draco Malfoy respectively, and was also the great-grandfather of Teddy Lupin and Scorpius Malfoy, respectively.
He died in 1992, when his grandson was attending his first or second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry while his granddaughter was training to become an Auror. Cygnus was the second last remaining Black of the male line before his nephew.

•Cygnus was named after his paternal grandfather. There was also Cygnus I, an early member of the House of Black, who was most likely Phineas Nigellus Black's father and thus Cygnus's great-great-grandfather.
•If Cygnus was truly born in 1938, than he would've been considerably young when his eldest daughter Bellatrix was born in 1951; this means that, like his father, Cygnus had a child at 13. It's possible that both are errors, as J. K. Rowling stated that math isn't her strong suit, and the Black Family Tapestry has other similar errors.
