It's possible (though it would require putting together a rather large
group of reliable secret keepers, which might've been tought at the
time).  Also, Sirius might've had some sort of a check-in schedule
with Dumbledore and the Potters, where if they didn't hear from him at
certain times of day they'd know he's been captured or killed -- in
that case, having an extra level of indirection would help give them
sufficient time to flee and change their security arrangements.

Hmm.  I wonder if it's possible to have two people be secret-keepers
for each other?  That would be ultimate security, wouldn't it?  You
can't find A unless B tells you how, but you can't find B to ask him
unless A tells you how...
