Exactly what I thought from the very beginning! The theory I 
subscribe to (in my fanfiction, at least) is that the Evanses are 
Pureblood Squibs descended from Slytherin. Well, JKR shot down the 
last part by stating categorically that Lily was *not* descended from 
Salazar, but still...

Maybe it's Petunia who disappointed the family by marrying a Muggle 
instead of another Squib. Maybe it was Petunia and not Lily who was 
estranged from her family.
