Jen: Do we know she's a witch or just surmise that? That's what I'm 
wondering. She wouldn't necessarily be the one to perform magic late 
in life, but that discussion started me wondering when we've 
actually seen her perform magic. Perhaps it's just a detail lost in 
all the other more important aspects of the book. 

Of course, I'm not certain we've seen Prof. Sprout do anything with 
a wand, either. Maybe that's why they went into the professions they 
did, because less magic was required and that wasn't their forte 
Although I'm not sure Divination is Trelawney's forte, either, but 
she is a Prophecy channeller--that's something to her name.

Thanks for the canon from OOTP, Jacqui! I'm looking too. At least we 
know Trelawney owns a wand.
