Carol responds:
With all those hogs and (winged) boars in the HP books (Hogwarts,
Hogsmeade, Hog's Head), JKR must be not only a Yorkist but a
Ricardian. And Albus (white) must be a Yorkist as well. ;-)
In the name of the grammar police, I hope you'll forgive me for
pointing out that it's "didst thou" ("thee" is objective case; "thou"
is nominative case).
Carol, noting that Walburga Black (with a b, not a p) is so named,
along with her husband and second cousin, Orion, in the Black Family Tree
