Speaking of Dobby... I think he was Potters' house-elf
first. He's 
treating Harry much the way Winky does Mr. Crouch.
Dobby's the /only/ 
house-elf in such awe for Harry. Now he wants to be
free long enough 
for Harry to mature so he might get back to being a
proper house-elf. 
He's also braver than Winky about his freedom... James
Potter may 
have told him not to join them because the concealment
Charm couldn't 
be done if you had a house-elf around...


It state in COS chapter two--- "The Wizard family
Dobby serves, sir... DObby is a house-elf... bound to
serve one house and one family forever."

and since later we find out that he's Malfoys elf... I
dont think he could be the Potters old elf.
Interesting that you say he's braver than winky about
his freedom-- I've managed to convince myself that
Dobby will die in the coming books, in some crazy
heroic stunt to save Harry... after all, he was
brought back in the GOF, when I wasn't expecting...
and pluse he's malfoy's old elf! think of all the
possibilites for the plot! 
ah well... people keep telling me I'm insane for this
theory and sticking to it so fervently.
