Chys:

That was what I had suggested in the first place, what if it's some 
kind of code she's trying to get across to Neville, since no one else 
is listening?

So is there something hidden in Ogg's gravesite or written on his 
tombstone in code, perhaps? Maybe he knew a secret but was good at 
keeping it, quite a good foil to Hagrid with his, 'I shouldn't have 
told you that...' But then, does it stand to reason if he knew it, 
someone else knew it as well? Maybe Hagrid knows but it hasn't come 
up in that round about unimportant kind of way yet.
 
What was the original phrase or set of letters that you're all making 
those anagrams from? I might try it too.

How old are Neville's parents? Are they the same age as Lily and 
James?
