 and "his mother's grandparents" for "his mother's parents"
on her website.
(That last one is still uncorrected.)

>From Karen:
It means more to me that Harry's mother's grandparents were muggles than
just his grandparents.  There has been a lot of discussion about whether
there is a wizard, witch or squib in Lily's family tree.  If her
grandparents are muggles that means one must go back at least 5
generations to find magical blood.  If any of Lily's great-grandparents
were members of the WW, one of Lily's grandparents would have been a
half-blood.

I think JKR wants to endorse the statement that Lily (and therefore
Petunia) are definitately muggles.

That's not to say Petunia didn't try to attract the interest of one of
Lily's classmates or that "horrid boy".
