I am rather surprised at Harry's lack of curiousity about his family
past.  Now that he's had a few years to get used to the wizarding
world, I would have thought he'd be spending some time researching
his heritage.

I don't mean just his parents: Hagrid's thoughtful gift of the photo
album might have slaked an initial thirst for core knowledge.  But
what about grandparents and ancestors?  Family history?  And for that
matter, how about asking Hagrid about the various friends and former
classmates who contributed the pics?

It just seems that he would be more curious.
