In POA everyone believed Black a murderer and traitor (there was no 
evidence that he was not), so there was no reason Mr. and Mrs. 
Weasley would not be worried. Even Harry thought Black was after him. 
Only at the very end of the book it was revealed that Black was not 
the secret keeper and not after Harry. And I am not 100% sure but I 
think that the OOP was not resurected at that time of POA (and 
anyways Black would not have been a member of the new order at that 
time). It was resurected in GoF and even if they were members of the 
original order, they would still have believed Black to be guilty. As 
did Lupin, DD and everyone else.
