Well, to begin, I must say that what Old Nan told Bran about stories always makes me go "Awwwww..." It's so how I feel about old stories, good stories. I love re-reading, re-hearing, re-watching. They are good friends.
O, old Nan’s stories are so incredibly powerful and quite scary actually! And must be all true!
But I do think it is significant that Jojen thinks that Bran would have heard this story already, and many times.
You are definitely right, it is clear that Ned and everybody else knows everything what happened !
The she-wolf is Lyanna Stark, and she sounds an awful lot like Arya, doesn't she?
Ned sometimes mentioned that Arya is a lot like Lyanna, she will grow to be a beauty, that will be amazing..
The dragon prince sang a song so sad it made the wolf maid sniffle, but when her pup brother teased her for crying she poured wine over his head."I am so much in love with Rhaegar - he obviously sounds like a good person and romantic, and imagine him being ( ... )

I adore Rhaegar!!! I'm going to write a little about him in a post, because he's one of my favorite characters that we never actually meet. He fascinates me.
I've read further in ASoS, so I think I understand the second dream about the man on the bridge and the drowned crow a little more, but I'm sure it will become more clearer as I go along. You know, I read and re-read these books a few years ago, but I'm amazed at how much I forgot (I'm also ashamed, because once I was quite obsessed with these books and remembered every detail, and now I'm having to remind myself of so much that I'd forgotten!).
I'm hoping that Dany's dream is prophetic, too. It makes sense that it would be the Others. Why has everyone forgotten the true purpose of the Wall? Why? It's very annoying (although I really do understand...it's been a thousand years since there was a serious threat like this...people forget the p ast so easily...)
