Molly Weasley's (Red?) Hair

[Malabud]

No: HPFGUIDX 4319

Nick and Kelley have been discussing back and forth the color of Molly
Weasley's hair, and I thought I'd add my thoughts. 

The gene for red hair must come from both parents in order for the children
to have red hair. Of course, it is not necessary for Mrs. Weasley to have
red hair to pass on the gene. Considering that *all* the Weasley children
have "flaming red hair", it is highly unlikely that she does not have red
hair herself.

I don't own a copy of PoA (blasphemy, I know), so I can't quote directly,
but isn't there a passage in the opening chapters about how all the Weasleys
(including the parents) have red hair? Harry's looking at the cover photo on
the Daily Prophet of all the Weasley's in Egypt. The photo is in black and
white, but Harry knows they all have red hair. Can someone help with this
passage?
