I have trouble seeing the Weasley's as 70.  I don't
think you can look at it as half muggle age.  Because
I believe after Cos JKR said that Snape is 35.  Since
Snape was in the same year as Lily and James...and
Harry is 12 in CoS...that means that Lily had him when
she was 21...so if you did this whole "half muggle
age" thing...that would be equivalent to Lily giving
birth at age 10.5.  So, unless because of their longer
lifespan, wizard have more childbearing years, it's
illogical to say that Molly Weasley is 70, because
that would mean she had Ginny and Ron in her late 50s,
and her first children in her late forties and early
50s.  Since she and Arthur were dating at Hogwarts, I
find it hard to believe they would wait almost 30
years to have children.  My guess would be that they
had Bill in their mid 20s, putting them in their mid
to late forties.

Sorry if I lost anyone in that...I know it's a little
confusing.
