Did Fred Weasley loose an ear?

In the beginning of the the 7th book, while the order was trying to transfer Harry from the Dudley's house to a safe location, they were met by a good number of Death Eaters, along with Voldemort. George, who looked liked Harry thanks to Polyjuice potion, had his ear cursed off by a stray spell cast by Snape. He used "Sectumsempra!" - a slashing curse {Which he invented} in The Battle of the Seven Potters. His intended target was a Deatheater's Arm.

How was Albus Dumbledore killed?

Albus Dumbledore died after Severus Snape hit him with the killing curse. Dumbledore had previously told Snape that when the time came, it must be Snape who killed him. This was to prevent Draco Malfoy from having to do so and to also ensure that Dumbledore died the last master of the Elder wand. However, as Draco disarmed Dumbledore, that part of the plan failed.


Since George Weasley was hit by the avada kedavra curse and lived wouldn't that also make him the boy who lived?

He has never been hit by Avada Kevadra. You might think of the Sectumsepra cast by Snape.
