<< She is not from a wizarding family with Petunia as either a squib or
as a renounced witch. At least not in the books I'm reading.

not to get testy, but lets go by the books not by our own random
speculation.>>

You're right, the evidence is clear, and this is all my fault for going
off at a tangent about Petunia without thinking. Obviously, she would have
ended up at Hogwarts herself if she'd really been a witch... silly me.

In general, as for going by the books vs speculation, I would say that
what is true and what is *thought* to be true may not be the same
thing. Speculation is part of the fun (fan fic being part of that,
as you know) and often hits upon hidden truths.

Okay, I'll stop trying to squirm my way out of it now :)
