That could be prove to be really interesting (and frightening) if she
did mean to use ancestor rather than descendant.

I still think she meant descendant--because the Heir of Slytherin is
the only one that can open the CoS, and "heir" indicates descendant. Of
course, I don't think it ever says explicitly that Voldemort/Tom Riddle
was the Heir of Slytherin though it's implied--I don't have my copy of
CoS with me right now.

Those are my thoughts, but I could be wrong (it does happen
occasionally). And if Voldemort is the ancestor of Salazar Slytherin,
there may still be an Heir of Slytherin still out there.
