If harrys maternal grandparents were alive i do not think they would 
have not thought of him as a relavtive (assuming Lily was adopted) 
sorry aboput the double negative, because petunia complainedf abouty 
how proud their parents were of Lily being a witch so if she was 
adopted they obviously did not see any difference between their 
children or see their adopted child as "not a rel relative).  I think 
it is more likely to assume that Lily's parents are nolonger alive, 
especially since Harry would have most likely met tyhem living with 
the Dursleys assuming they were alive.
