Hey! Yew!

Ok, sorry for the bad pun, but they are my specialty.
 
  So all the talk about EIHWAZ made me curiouse. I looked it up. SOme places it looked more like a bit of lightning than others, so... meh...  But then you read that it is the symbol for the "Yew tree."  
 
  I was just reading Voldimort's rebirth sceen when I noticed, this:
 
  "They were standing instead in a sark and overgrown graveyard; the black outline of a small church was visible beuond a large yew tree to their right." (OoP, US HB, p.636)
    
  This seemingly innocent detail is mentioned several times, down to it's leaves, in the telling of Voldimort's rebirth. 
 
  It made me wonder what Harry's wand was.  I checked. Holly. Ok, not impressive, but then you go on and read on page 85, OoP, US softback:
  "It is very curious indeed that you should be destined for thie wand when its brother-- why, its brother gave you that scar... Yes, thirteen-and-a-half inches. Yew. Cuirious indeed how these things happen."
 
  I am as of yet, uncertain what these things could mean. The first thing that come to mind is that this is confirmation that IF the symbol on Harry's head is eiwhaz, then it is very likely that the mark is from the wand that Voldemort held, and not from Lily.  In addition, I think we should keep an eye out for eiwhaz and yew, since they seem to hold an importance, and possibly beyond the scar.  
 
  Any ideas?
