one problem...the Lexicon gives two different years for the 
murders.....on Voldemort's pages, under Time Lines....it says Tom 
murdered his father and grandparents in the summer of 1944, before 
his 7th year begins in September.....the Lexicon also states in the 
Master Time Line, The Beginning of the Tale, 1900 - 1949,....that 
Tom murders his father and grandparents in the summer of 1945, after 
he sits his NEWTs and leaves Hogwarts.......
