Age

This is the first time that I've learned about the Snape timeline.  I'm asking about age.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm thinking that Snape was a young DE turned Spy for Dumbledore.  How do you suppose Snape would be treated/accepted by older DE at such a young age.  But he was a Slytheryn, so that probably was a given fact that he'd join the DE.  Because Snape is young would LV have welcomed him with open arms.  Is there any evidence that DE were recruited from other houses?  There must be some bad apples in other houses.

When was the Order formed?  Was there mixture of ages in the Order?  Were some of the OOP people were very young.  Am I correct in thinking that Lupin and Sirus, and possibility even Peter, was in the Order until things went to Hell?  Or was the Order formed after Sirius landed in Azkaban and Peter spent a lot of years as a rat.  What about the Potters.  They were very young to be murdered.  But there are a lot of people too young to die, even in the MW.

Last question.  Did houses always marry within their house?  Or did they look beyond what house they were sorted into.
