Balfour Blane (1566 – 1629) was a British wizard who established the Committee on Experimental Charms. For this accomplishment, he was commemorated on a bronze Chocolate Frog Card.[1]

Behind the scenes
Given that Pottermore revealed that the Ministry of Magic was formally established in 1707[2] (78 years after Balfour Blane's death), it follows that the Committee on Experimental Charms must predate the Ministry itself, possibly having started out as part of the Wizards' Council.
