Can't be in that order.  The "prio incontartum" which occurred when 
Voldemort and Harry dueled, every spell that Voldemort's wand 
performed started to come out.  We saw the "Cruciartus" curse which 
hit Harry, then the arm generated for Wormtail, Cedric, James, then 
Lily.  If this is correct then that means not only was Lily killed 
before James, but Harry was struck first (since that spell did not 
come out of the wand).  In which case, if it was Voldemort's failure 
to kill Harry that caused his own downfall, then someone else killed 
Lily and James with Voldemort's wand.
