As naive as this may sound, maybe the thought hasn't crossed Harry's
mind. He's an abused child. The Dursley's admitted in the first book
that they did everything they could to squash the magic out of him.
Some of the curiosity about his parents were squashed by Vernon and
Petunia too, for example the irritated manner in which they *remind*
Harry how he got his scar. If all his questions about his parents
were
answered with an underlying hostility, Harry would learn not to ask
any questions at all.
