You must think about the other Weasley names though, they are not 
particularly "magical".  William, Charles, Percy, Fred(erick?), 
George, and Ronald sound more Royal actually than wizarding.

Cousins and Grandparents just happened to die in a year?  An entire 
family it seems?  Slightly odd....  It does make one wonder though, 
how much do former muggle wizards, like Lily and Hermione stay in 
touch with there muggle family?  Wizarding families from what I have 
read, have no contact with muggles in the family.  Such as Ron saying 
that his mom has a second cousin who is one, but they never talk to 
him.
