Well, in PS Malfoy is interested in seeking out Harry as an ally, and 
in COS Malfoy Senior recommends not dissing Harry openly; in the 
chapter The Polyjuice Potion Draco actually says,

"Saint Potter, the Mudbloods' friend... He's another one with no 
proper wizard feeling, or he wouldn't go around with that jumped up 
Granger Mudblood."

Also, JKR said in some interviews in the past few years (sorry, no 
web source now) that James Potter had inherited the rare Invisibility 
Cloak from his own father, and that they were well off.

I can't think of other specifics now, but from this I assumed the 
Potters were wizarding family.
