Here's a theory that would explain a great chunk of the Weasley 
backstory plus some of the 'blood traitor' stuff in OoP.

What if Arthur Weasley is on his second marriage?

His first marriage was to a Muggle, which is why he is a 'blood 
traitor', and Molly, a pureblood witch herself, is a 'blood traitor' 
for marrying him.

Susan (me) replies:
Hmmmm. It's possible, but I doubt it - what are the odds of having so many children who all look like each other if they have two mothers? And Molly and Arthur were dating back at Hogwarts (Molly was caught by Apollyon Pringle after "a midnight stroll with your father"), so I think it'd implied they've been together ever since. 

Personally, I think the Missing Weasley theory is nicer - the dead son between Charlie and Percy, making Ron a seventh son, which would fit in nicely with the Seer!Ron theory.

who now officially fancies Fred Weasley after OoP, and who can't believe there haven't been more TBAY posts - or are you all still staring glumly at the wrecked FourthMan!Avery? :D
