Re-reading GoF with my son tonight; the "Dark Mark" chapter ... got to the 
part where Arthur talks about the meaning of the Mark -- I can't quote 
directly because Alex is sleeping with the book, but he said something like, 
"You can't imagine how horrible it was to come home and find that Mark over 
your house, not knowing the horrors that awaited inside ..."  (to which Alex 
said, "that's what Harry's house looked like.")  It read to me like Arthur 
was remembering a time when he'd returned home to find the Mark over the 
Burrow ... could the Weasleys have been personally touched by the war against 
the Dark Lord more than we've been told? Could it have something to do with 
the reason they're poor?
