I was just rereading SS and on the second page it says "Mrs. Potter
was Mrs. Dursley's sister, but they hadn't met for several years..."
This means that if we assume the last time Petunia had seen Lily was
before Petunia was married and Lily was still a minor and living at
their parents house Lily probably did get married young and have
Harry since she would have had to do that in the space of several
years. The Dursleys had never seen Harry either, so he was probably
born within the space of those few years. Petunia probably never saw
Lily again after she herself was married due to her loathing of
anything having to do with the wizarding world. I can't seem to type
out how I'm thinking so if anyone can figure it out and tell everyone
else in comprehendable logic I'd be very grateful.
I'm not sure where you got your base assumption from Emerald - they might have
met in the street, at a family function or any number of places. Of course
Harry was born in the years they had not seen each other - he was only 14? 18?
months when James and Lily were killed. But remember Petunia did know of his
existence and his name so she obviously had some access to a source of
information somewhere .....
