It is hard to give precise about Voldemort’s followers. But thanks to magic and the testimony of some eye witnesses we learned some details about the inner workings of the organization known as “The Knights of Walpurgis” or “The Death Eaters”.
This group was formed by Tom Riddle in 1952, near Godric's Hollow. When the organization was created, they were just a small group with less than seven members. They began to grow in number around the late 50’s when Tom Riddle started to gain power. By the end of the 60’s the group was larger and it already had the bad reputation that made us all fear them.
The list of crimes committed by this organization is incredibly long. So long we couldn’t include all the details. However we tried to include the most relevant details about each member of the organization, their dark activities and their fate.
THE KNIGHTS OF WALPURGIS
*Aluveaux, Henry - Supposedly joined the Death Eaters in the 60’s, a long time supporter of Riddle, earned a reputation in the First War as ‘The Death Eaters Main Torturer’- he delighted in malicious magic. ‘Bella’ named him ‘her mentor’.
After the Dark Lord died the first time he went missing and many assume he fled the country. He has NOT been seen since.
* Avery Sr. (b. late 1920s)
One of the earliest members of the Death Eaters. He attended Hogwarts with Tom Riddle. He was father of the Avery boy that attended Hogwarts with Severus Snape. He was killed in the Battle of Hogwarts.
* Avery Jr. (b. late 1950s or early 1960s)
Attended Hogwarts with Severus Snape and was one of his “gang of Slytherins,” according to Sirius Black. Avery Jr. avoided Azkaban after the first war because he claimed to be acting under the influence of the Imperius Curse. Later reports cite Avery Jr. as the first Death Eater to crack and grovel at Voldemort's feet during the “reunion” of the order at the Little Hangleton graveyard. Surviving Death Eaters informed the ministry that Voldemort punished them with the Cruciatus Curse for abandoning him for 13 years. Avery Jr. was also punished when Lord Voldemort learned that the information he got about the Department of Mysteries was wrong and only he himself or Harry Potter could safely take a prophecy from its resting place. He survived to fight in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries and died during the Battle of Hogwarts.
* Bagman, Ludovic
Suspected of being a Death Eater but cleared of all charges. Bagman was an unwitting part of Rookwood's intelligence network. He was arrested in two occasions but no evidence could be found to declare him guilty.
* Black, Regulus Arcturus (c. 1961 - 1979)
He was cousin of Bellatrix Lestrange and brother of Sirius Black. Information disclosed by Harry Potter and Hermione Granger confirmed that he joined the Death Eaters at the age of 16 and remained in the order for two years. He discovered that Tom Riddle was engaged in more than just promoting the superiority of Pure Bloods. He learned that the Dark Lord was experimenting with very Dark Magic and decided to rebel against him. Apparently he died as a hero.
A note at the end of this file indicates that the full details about Voldemort’s experiments are part of the secret files of the Department of Mysteries.
*Carrow, Alecto
Sister of Amycus Carrow and part of the group of Death Eaters that invaded Hogwarts in the Battle of the Tower. Part of the ‘third generation’ of followers. The ones that were never jailed after the first fall of Riddle. She became a Professor at Hogwarts (DADA) for a short period of time. She was arrested after the Battle of Hogwarts and now is serving a life sentence in Azkaban.
* Carrow, Amycus
Alecto Carrow's brother. Described as a squat, "lumpy" looking wizard with a lopsided leer and a wheezy giggle. He was part of the group of Death Eaters who participated in the Battle of the Tower. He was arrested after the Battle but was declared too insane to stand trail. He’s still in St. Mungo’s hospital.
* Carrow, Jaden and Matilda
They were the only known American followers of the Dark Lord. The Carrows came from the United States with allegations of attacks upon Muggles against them. They came to Britain and hid in the muggle world. They provided the Dark Lord with valuable information about Muggle targets. Named in the Karkaoff trial, they both served several years in Azkaban and escaped during the mass break out in Summer 1997. Their freedom was short. They worked closely with Umbridge in the Muggle-born Registration Commission, but they were arrested in the purge of the Ministry and sent back to prison.
* Crabbe, Arthur
Father of Vincent Crabbe. He fought in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. Crabbe was one of the nine Death Eaters summoned to the Little Hangleton graveyard and was crippled at the Battle of Hogwarts. Falling masonry smashed his legs and a hex fired by a death eater removed the pulverized bones leaving him forever that way. He died three years ago in Azkaban.
* Crouch, Barty (Jr.)
He was part of the group that tortured the Longbottoms, for which he was given a life sentence in Azkaban. Thanks to his family's efforts, he escaped Azkaban only to be held prisoner by his own father. When the Dark Lord heard about his survival, he rescued him. Crouch was given the delicate task of entering Hogwarts. He achieved this using Polyjuice Potion to impersonate Auror Moody. His mission was to find a way to send Harry Potter to the Dark Lord.
He was punished with the Dementor's Kiss. His body is now an empty shell that keeps him “alive” even though he has no soul or sense of self.
* Crowe, Lyrea and Juden
The file indicates their real name was actually 'Von Muller'. They used the name Crowe to hide their real identity from the aurors.
He graduated from Drumstrang and she was a Hufflepuff. He served the Dark Lord from the 80’s. He was named as part of the Karkaroff evidence but was cleared of all charges after he claimed to have acted under Imperius Curse. Seemingly respectable, he married Lyrea (an offshoot of a long established pure blood family) and she soon joined him in the practice of Dark Magic. They both fought at the Battle of Hogwarts. Juden was captured and sent to Azkaban and his wife escaped and was trying to leave the country alongside Rodolphus Lestrange when she was killed by aurors.
* Dolohov, Antonin
He joined Voldemort around 1955. He was part of the ‘first generation of followers’. Along with four other Death Eaters, he murdered Gideon and Fabian Prewett and tortured many Muggles and opponents of Voldemort during the first war.

* Goyle, Tobius
Father of Gregory Goyle. He was one of the 9 Death Eaters summoned to the Little Hangleton graveyard. He is currently serving a life sentence in Azkaban.

* Jugson, Sven
He fought in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, and a killing curse ended his life at the Battle of Hogwarts.
* Karkaroff, Igor (d. 1996)
He was captured by "Mad-Eye" Moody in 1979 after he haunted him for six months. By the time he went to a trial Voldemort had already fallen. Scared to serve a life sentence in Azkaban, he recanted his allegiance and sold out several other Death Eaters in exchange for immunity from prosecution. Not long after that he became headmaster of Durmstrang Institute.
When Voldemort returned, he attempted to run away to save his life. His dead body was found during the summer of 1996 in a shack up north with the Dark Mark over it.

* Macnair, Walden
He was an executioner for the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures and one of the 9 Death Eaters summoned to the Little Hangleton graveyard. He was part of the group that persuaded giants to join the dark side. Apparently, he was the man with the black moustache that visited Bode at St. Mungo's on Christmas Eve. That "friend" who brought him the Devil's Snare that killed him.
Macnair was captured during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. He escaped and took part in the Battle of Hogwarts. There he was thrown into a wall and recaptured by Rubeus Hagrid.
