SSSusan:
Most people assume it from this bit from the World Book Day chat in 
March:

Sirius Riddle: What houses were Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, James 
Potter and Remus Lupin in? Everyone tells me they were all 
Gryffindor, but I won't believe it unless I hear it from Ms. Rowling 
herself!

JK Rowling says: This is JK herself saying that they were indeed in 
Gryffindor! 

The problem is the quesioner listed Sirius *twice* and left out 
Peter.  But the *assumption* is that all the Marauders were 
Gryffindors.  I'll grant that we can't say w/ absolute certainty 
that we KNOW...but I'm placing my bet on this having been an 
unintentional boo-boo and that all four were indeed Gryffindors.
