Me:
I have to say, I don't think that Lily (and therefore Harry) is 
related to the Weasleys, for one major reason:

None of the Weasleys seemed to recognize Harry on sight upon first 
meeting him.  Maybe they were just pretending, but why would they do 
that?

This is also the reason that I don't think Molly and Arthur were 
included in Dumbledore's "old crowd."  I find this surprising 
considering the people that *did* recognize him--Daedelus Diggle, Mr. 
Ollivander, and toothless Tom, the innkeeper of the Leaky Cauldron.  
I have a soft theory that we'll see more of Diggle and Ollivander 
(maybe not Tom), as well as Figg and Fletcher, because they were all 
part of the Old Crowd, where they had intimate contact with Lily & 
Harry'sDoppelganger!James.

What do you think?

Cheers!
