Description
Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing the history, as we know it, of the well known and well loved Weasley family.
Even those not terribly familiar with the wizarding world of Harry Potter will have likely—at the very least—HEARD of the large and lovable Weasley clan. Recognized not only by their shock of bright red hair but also by their unwavering loyalty and widespread reputation for believing all witches and wizards are equal, the Weasleys are present within the novels and films from almost the very beginning of the series. First introduced during the famous scene at King’s Cross Station in which Harry searches for Platform 9 ¾s, we meet Ron, his mother, Molly, and four of Ron’s six siblings before Harry even boards the Hogwarts Express. From there, Harry and Ron go on to create one of the strongest friendships of the entire series, with the orphaned “Boy Who Lived” spending much of his time with, not only Ron, but the entire Weasley family during the many holidays and special events that take place over the years. But where did this famous family of redheads known for their strong beliefs and affiliation with doing “what is right”—even in the face of financial instability—come from? What is the history of the Weasley family?
Let’s start from the beginning.
