Might have been what? Voldemort supporters? i think not? though, the possibility they  
or one of them might have been Slytherin is interesting. Except... I doubt Lily, 
muggle-born, would have been sorted into slytherin, and PS (film only?) indicates 
James was on the Gryffindor quidditch team........ or WAS Lily muggle-born? what if... 
what if Petunia was instead a Squib?

well, there is evidence, you just see it as biased.  We have all sorts of names of 
Slytherins that correspond with names of DEs, compare with no matches in the other 
houses... and we have Hagrid's statement.
