Corvus loved this child, but felt that in order to protect him, he needed to send him away to America and give him up for adoption. We all know where that goes, and it leaves us with a tangle of questions. Chiefly, if Credence isn't actually Yusuf's half-brother as he thought, will he still feel compelled to kill him?
Aurelius was an illegitimate child of Aberforth's. His mother is killed, and as a result Aberforth is unable to care for his son. Credence is taken to America and put up for adoption, a fact known to no one but Leta Lestrange (Zoe Kravitz).
Dumbledore, having witnessed this with Ariana, told Newt that "every time it grew darker, it began to poison her." As a result, Dumbledore recognised the signs of Credence's nature slowly killing him and he told Newt that Credence couldn't be saved.
Leta recounted her father sending her and her brother to America on a ship. Wanting to relieve herself of her screaming brother, Leta swapped him with another baby on the ship, that baby being Credence. The ship sank before Leta could switch the babies back, and the real Corvus Lestrange drowned.
Credence was raised by Mary Lou Barebone, an abusive, No-Maj, antimagic activist who forced her adopted son to suppress his magic — leading to the development of his dangerous, parasitic force.

Credence Barebone Isn't Voldemort's Dad But He Could Be Snape's Grandfather.
This would explain Leta Lestrange's story about the baby switch on the boat. Credence survived, but it's unknown what happened to his mother. She likely drowned when the ship sank, leading to Credence being adopted by the Barebones.
Albus confirms to Creedence early on in the film that he is in fact a Dumbledore, quashing any rumor that Grindelwald had lied to the young boy in order to sway him to his movement. It is explained that Credence is the illegitimate son of Albus's younger brother, Aberforth (Richard Coyle).
Credence's costume and hair change are so similar to Severus Snape's that it foreshadows his path in Fantastic Beasts 3 — consequently ruining his ending. Grindelwald abused Credence's need for an identity, telling him whatever he wanted to hear to secure his loyalty in his war against Dumbledore.
But Credence is dying as a result of his Obscurus curse, and it's very likely Aberforth will only get to spend just a short amount of precious time with his son. This is the root of Credence not being mentioned in the Harry Potter series.
Due to his step-mother's cruelty and hated towards magic and being emotionally unstable, Credence became the Obscurial whose Obscurus wreaked havoc in New York City. After being promised by Gellert Grindelwald he would reveal who he truly is, Credence became a member of the Acolytes.
Tragically, even though Credence was saved from Grindelwald's Avada Kedavra, he is dying because of his Obscurus (having survived so long only because of the powerful magic within him).
Kendra Dumbledore
Not only did her husband end up being incarcerated in Azkaban, but the whole family had to move from Mould-On-The-Wold, to Godric's Hollow to try and protect her youngest.
Grindelwald had claimed the phoenix's presence around Credence proved he was a Dumbledore, but it seems he was telling a half-truth, because in reality the phoenix kept returning to Credence because they are drawn to provide strength and comfort for those who are dying.
J.K. Rowling previously revealed that Grindelwald is a Seer, which means he can look into the future. Though this deleted scene is brief, it does give more insight into Grindelwald's motives. Essentially, the dark wizard hopes to use Credence to kill Dumbledore.
Credence may well be related to Voldemort, but it would have to be through Voldemort's grandmother. That also means the mystery woman must've had a second child: Merope Gaunt, born in 1907. It's entirely possible that Aberforth could have sired a child with Voldemort's grandmother.
"The Secrets of Dumbledore" circumvents the timeline issues by revealing that Credence — or rather, Aurelius — isn't Albus' brother. He's Aberforth's son, which makes him Albus' nephew.
Voldemort was Tom Riddle and Dumbledore met Tom as a child. Riddle also attended Hogwarts. Riddle was also a Jr to his father, Tom Riddle Sr. Nothing lines up with Credence being Tom.
Credence Barebone, born Aurelius Dumbledore, is the secondary antagonist of the Fantastic Beasts film series. He is the adopted son of Mary Lou Barebone, leader of the anti-witch No-Maj group the New Salem Philanthropic Society. Shy and withdrawn, this caused Credence to be susceptible to her abuse.
That's a mystery that presumably JK Rowling is holding back for a future movie. At the end of the movie, once Credence joins up with Grindelwald (Johnny Depp), Grindelwald tells him that his true name is Aurelius Dumbledore.
Nagini (d. 2 May 1998) was a Maledictus cursed to transform into a snake. Originating possibly in Indonesia, by 1927 she was a performer at the Circus Arcanus where she met Credence Barebone and had a romantic relationship with him.
They are from different families. Though Queenie might be related to Anthony Goldstein. Yeah, there are some similarities between them like they both were half blood and what u said but they are not related in any way. Also, Queenie was a naturally born legillimen while Snape had acquired that skill.
Severus' lineage on his mother's side was Irish. His maternal grandparents, Muireann Prince and her husband, Roderick, were overjoyed when their daughter had a son. His middle name, Gaeilge for 'Dark Warrior,' was gifted at birth by Roderick when he held him for the first time.
Arabella Lily Snape (born 12 June 1981) was a half-blood witch and was the only daughter of Professor Severus Snape and an unknown descendant of Slytherin. She attended Hogwarts from 1992 until her death in 1998.
