Gideon Prewett was a pure-blood wizard, the brother of both Fabian Prewett and Molly Weasley (nee Prewett).

Gideon and his brother were a members of the original Order of the Phoenix, formed during Lord Voldemort's first rise to power. They were both murdered by Death Eaters, including Antonin Dolohov, who was sentenced to Azkaban for the crime. As Alastor Moody commented, they "fought like heroes. Took five Death Eaters to bring them down."
