Is there any date given for when the Tapestry was actually made? If
Sirius and his generation were on the bottom, that doesn't give much
room for future generationg to be woven in, would it?

And if the Weasleys were really that unworthy and blood traitors,
wouldn't there be a large spot where they were wiped out if the
tapestry had been woven hundreds of years ago? They ARE related to the
Blacks, that means at one time they were interrelated. Are we supposed
to believe they were related pre- Hogwarts founding and they remember,
even if they don't recognise it? Not really practical.

As for Mr. and Mrs. Black being related...
Even if they are, there are cultures that practice arranged marriage
ONLY to members inside their family. I have seen it. They really do
it. For generations. It's wierd, but from what I saw their kids were
normal, happy, and healthy. To each their own.

The thing is, the Blacks are British, and I don't recall it ever being
a part of THEIR culture.

My parents have been married 40 years. My moms Uncle was also called
Uncle by my dad after they were married, and they were best friends.

I don't know if I contributed anything by this, but I felt like
posting today :)
