Doesn't apply to Hogwarts, which draws from all of the UK. It's really coincidental, though.
This is why there is a lot of genderflipped HP fics. Harry generally loses what badassness he has along with his boy parts.
Finally someone else who is squicked by transgenerational shipping! I frequently make an exception for Snarry, because there's some really good stuff out there, and it's my favorite kind of character interaction when done right, but... no. Time travel can make it all better, though. Still, Snack is where it's at for me, even if my current ficcish tendencies involve throwing Snape in a metaphorical small room and watch them interact in a gennish way.
According to JKR, neither Lily or James was employed. They were the independently wealthy patrons of the Order. I'm sure they kicked ass in that capacity, however. Take that all of you James as Auror fic writers!
