"Or perhaps the Weasley's were guilty of a worse crime. They betrayed their 
"blood" by choosing to fight on the side of the Half Bloods and Muggle borns."


DuffyPoo:
Ok, I know I'm sometimes as thick as Crabbe and Goyle together, but I'm just not sure what you're saying here.  The Weasleys, Arthur and Molly, were not a part of the Order during the first go round with LV.  Molly is, according to JKR, related to the Prewetts - Fabian and Gideon, who were a part of the Order back then - Prewett is Molly's maiden name.  But there is no mention of Prewetts on this tapestry (not that they're not there).  Mrs. Black died in 1985 so any tapestry blasting had to be done before that time.   The Weasleys participating in this LV war and OotP is well after Mrs. B's time.
