interesting!!!!

Eustace_Scrubb continued:
Well, maybe, or maybe just the Potters' batty old neighbor across the
way.  At the end of GoF, when Dumbledore is reactivating the order, he
does refer to Arabella Figg as part of the "old gang," right?  We've
discovered her role in Little Whinging before and during the time of
the second Order, but we don't yet know what she did in the first.  

And there's always the question about how Dumbledore was informed of
the attack on the Potters, who else was there on either side, etc. 
Perhaps it was Mrs. Figg...
