I'm new to HP4GU, can someone point me to the cannon that proves 
Charlie is so much older than Percy? In the Chamber of Secrets (which 
I'm reading again in preparation for the movie release), when Harry 
rescues Ginny, she goes on and on about how she will be expelled from 
Hogwarts and how she has been looking forward to being a Hogwart's 
student since Bill was accepted. (I'm at work without my copy of the 
book, sorry for the lack of direct quote).

In the Chamber of Secrets, Ginny is a first year student and 
therefore 11 years old. Most people, unless the WW is exceptional in 
this regard, don't remember much before they're five or so years old. 
This means that if she were old enough to remember when Bill was 
accepted at age 11, there's likely at most 6-7 years between them. It 
would then follow that Charlie, Percy, Fred and George, Ron and Ginny 
would be born closely together with very little time between them.
