And now me (Odile):  Yes, Arthur & Molly were
definitely Gryffs.  Quoting from PS (UK paperback), p.
90:

'What house are your brothers in?' asked Harry.
'Gryffindor,' said Ron.  ... 'Mum and Dad were in it,
too.'
[end quote]

I am almost positive that there is canon that says
Hagrid was indeed a Gryff as well, but I cannot find
it yet.  

McGonagall, Flitwick and Sprout I would say are alumni
of the Houses they head, so, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and
Hufflepuff, respectively.

Back to Darrin:
<snip Lockhart>

<snip Trelawney... Quirrell, Hooch, Binns, Sinistra --
Not enough known.>

<snip Crouch pere and fils>

<<<Malfoys - all Slyths.>>> YAY!  ^_^

<<<Fudge -- Now this is interesting. His feelings on
purebloods indicate 
Slytherin sympathies, as does his ambition. But this
gets into 
questions about how the Minister of Magic is picked.
Does he or she 
have to be elected, or just appointed? And appointed
by who? We know 
that Fudge got the job after Dumbledore turned it down
and after 
Crouch got into trouble.

I don't know. Putting him in Slyth would be too easy.
Call it a 
Hufflepuff.>>>

As to Fudge, there really is no way for us to know
what House Fudge was in until JKR tells us.  However,
I can see Percy Weasley becoming the ultimate
bureaucratic dweeb, just as Fudge is.  Who knows? 
Maybe Fudge is a Gryffindor gone awry?

--not so sure about a band name, but I think "House of
Fudge" would be a pretty good name for a concept
album.
