Montavilla47:
I just had a very thought.  If Godric's Hollow is the ancestral home of Godric
Gryffindor, and it *doesn't* belong to James or Dumbledore, then who might 
it belong to?

It's unlikely to be Sirius, as we don't see Gryffindor on the Black Family Tapestry.  
Harry would have noticed that, I think.   Could it have been Lupin's home?  
Possibly.  Poor Lupin!  Not only can't he get a job, but his friends end up blowing 
up his house!

Or--what if the Heir of Gryffindor is Peter Pettigrew?

Hehe.
