Don't mean to contradict the english major, but.....

> Weasleys' is appropriate for the possessive case -- the Weasleys' car;
> the Weasleys' home (but Ron Weasley's wand)

This would be right if their name was Weasleys....but its Weasley without
the s normally...so the possessive would be

Weasley's  not Weasleys' right?


> Weasleys is plural -- the Weasleys arrived at King's Cross at 3:00
>
> Hope that helps Simon!

> Penny
