It just occurred to me that Fred & George's initials are the same as 
those of Fabian and Gideon Prewett, who were, most likely, Molly's 
brothers.  Coincidence, or were they named (initialled) for their 
recently-killed uncles?  I lean toward the latter. 


Gina:
   My mother and I discuss this a lot. I think Fred and George may have been
Molly's nephews that she and Arthur adopted. Think of P/S when she gets
there names wrong and when in OOTP she finds that Ron is prefect she says
something to the affect of being so proud and that he makes everyone in the
family where either Fred or George then remarks something like "Well then
who are we" but in a joking manner. Maybe they are not really the immediate
family.
