Welcome to the group, Leslie.  You have asked the $50,000 question.  
If we knew the answer, we would not need JKR to finish the HP 
series.  Well, not really, but IMO we will not know what the answer 
to you question is until JKR publishes the rest of the HP books, 
although if you hang around here for any length of time you will hear 
plenty of speculation, mostly along the lines that James and Lily 
were Aurors, or possibly Unspeakables, who were hot on the trail of 
Voldy.
