Molly and Arthur Weasley were also both Gryffindors, if I'm not mistaken.

Well, I didn't see any evidence at all that there was still any 
Fred/Angelina in OotP.  It think they just went to the Yule Ball as 
friends.  (He certainly didn't invite her in a very romantic way,  
and their dancing at the Ball didn't seem to be of the holding-each-
other-tightly-and-swaying-slowly sort.)  The fact that they went 
together is evidence, I think, along with the brief (and painful!) 
bit of Harry/Cho, that JKR doesn't feel constrained by the need to 
have the male in the pair be the older one (after all, Angelina is 
about five or six months older than Fred).  I don't think any of the 
Yule Ball pairs are necessarily going to be pairs  in the rest of 
the series.  It was a dance, a one-time thing.  I can't think of a 
single YB pair who were were referred to as a couple in OotP.  (And 
I really doubt that the YB is an indicator of Neville/Ginny.  She 
was his second choice, after all, and she hooked up with Michael 
Corner because of the YB.)

As for Lily and James--Lily could still have a birthday earlier in 
the year than James, if JKR ever divulges this info.  And isn't JKR 
older than her new husband, or am I thinking of some other famous 
couple?
