Fred and George Weasley were born on the 1st April 1978. At the start of the series, they were thirteen years old.

Fred Weasley died aged twenty. His brother George survived, later getting married and having children. In 2017, the year the epilogue is set, he would have turned thirty-nine.

Fred is more the "leader," which is why Rowling said she decided to kill him off instead of George. (Edit: One easy way to tell is to pay close attention to when they speak in the books. Fred almost always speaks first.) But I think they're both equally funny.

In the movies, George has a little bump up towards the top of his nose. It's not always easy to see, but it's the only way to tell them apart on TV. Aside from, of course, the Christmas sweaters with "F" and "G".

Edit: Luisa, Fred dies in Deathly Hallows towards the end during the battle at Hogwarts. A Death Eater (I don't think it's specified) kills him. And, Bekky, George loses an ear (he's very "holey"), not Fred.

Fred and George Weasley were born on the 1st April 1976.

When he died, Fred was 20 years old. George would have been 41 during the epilogue in 2017.

I don't believe that was mentioned in any of the seven novels.

They are nineteen in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Really, think about it; the twins are only two years older than Harry, Ron, and Hermione!

In the books, Rowling informs us that they are approximately the same height.
