David:

I don't know that they're so much clues Rachel. It could just be 
JK's feelings on the 'circle of life'.

One other I can think of is how often we're reminded how Harry is 
the spitting image of his father.

I surely hope Harry gets the chance to carry on the circle with his 
own children, but I have my doubts.

If Harry does not have children, this then would be the end of the 
Potter line I guess.
