This is yet more evidence, to me, that Lily and James were in Gryffindor and 
therefore members of McGonagall's house. 

There is a wonderful timeline of that day at the lexicon. You also have to 
remember, according to the timeline we have, Lily and James were only a 
couple years out of Hogwarts when they had Harry. (One reason I'm REALLY 
annoyed that Gary Oldman, fine actor that he is, is playing Sirius Black in the 
film-- should have been Sean Bean! Oldman is just too much of an OLD 
MAN!)

Was there a plan to use the Dursleys

She knew to wait there, having wheedled the information out of  Hagrid, but I 
don't think she knew about the Dursleys. She had been investigating them all 
day.
