Prewett Entire Family

Prewett was the surname of a pure-blood wizarding family, and one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight. They were related to the Black, Weasley, and Macmillan families,Black family tree and more distantly to the Delacour, Johnson and Potter families and the Muggles Granger and Evans families. With the deaths of Fabian and Gideon in the First Wizarding War, the status of the Prewett family is unknown. However, it continued in the female line through the children of Molly Weasley.
==Family history==
Some members of the Prewett family would likely have been labelled "blood traitors", as they were members of the Order of the Phoenix and did not believe in the ideology of blood purity. However, the attitude of the prejudiced House of Black towards the Prewetts suggests that not all members were considered blood traitors. Lucretia Black was not disowned for marrying Ignatius Prewett, implying that the Prewetts were more accepted in elite pure-blood circles than a family like the Weasleys.Distinctive family traits included red hair and large noses.Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - Full Tan DraftIt is unknown whether Molly's second cousin (a squib accountant) was a pure-blood or not; he could have had a Muggle mother.

Ignatius Prewett 	Brother of Mr Prewett and uncle of Molly, Gideon, and FabianSirius Black stated in Ch. 6 of Order of the Phoenix that Molly Weasley was his "cousin by marriage". This means that Ignatius could not have been Molly, Fabian, and Gideon's father, as this would have made them first cousins by blood of Sirius. Ignatius was Sirius's uncle by marriage, and if Molly was his niece, this could explain Sirius's comment. See this talk page for more information.

Muriel 	A great-aunt of Molly Weasley née Prewett, thus an aunt or aunt-in-law to Mr or Mrs Prewett. While Muriel is Molly's great-aunt, and thus related to the family, it is not confirmed as to whether she is a Prewett.Pottermore - states that Muriel is "technically Mrs Weasley's great aunt"
Tessie 	A great-aunt of Ron Weasley and his siblings. She might be an aunt of Molly's or of Arthur's. If the former is the case, then Tessie is related to the family, although it would not be certain that she was a Prewett.
