Interesting question. I started thinking about it. Harry has no living
relatives but the Dursleys, which I take to mean no living Potter side
either. So probably Petunia got the job of disposing of the bodies, no?
She's her sister's only family. I understand cremation's cheaper, so they
probably were, but even if they were buried I can't see the Dursleys taking
Harry to the graves. They lied about the car crash, they could have lied
about other things. He might know, or believe he knows, where they lie. Or
perhaps this is one of the things he simply hasn't got to yet, in the flurry
of new stuff and the busy-ness of the school year.
