How old were Lily and James?

Hey everyone!

I was just writing the prologue to my next fanfic and I realized that 
I could not remember any canon concerning Lily and James' ages. Now I 
have been long in the belief that they were 21 when they died and I 
am now not sure why. Although Barb's fanfic may have something to do 
with it, I am sure I thought they were that young before I ever read 
the PS Trilogy as I remember thinking that the actors in the PS/SS 
film were too old.

Am I wrong with 21 or if I am right, where is the canon for it?

I also realized from chapter one of PS/SS that the Potter's were 
obviously well liked, especially with the Weasley parents and Hagrid 
that I am now not so sure.

Someone please put me out of my misery!!
