I don't see cannon for Dumbledore "creating" either tom or Harry.

OTOH,  We only know Dumbledore "defeated" Grindelwald. Did 
Grinelwald die? What did Dumbledore do with the body? 
We don't  really know. The lexicon has Dumbledore finishing
Grindelwald in 1945, the last year Tom Riddle is at Hogwarts.  So,
did Grindelwald do a Quirrel move on Tom?  I sort of suspect 
this.

Then I'd like to ask, what did Dumbledore know and when 
did he know it, about tom and Grindelwald?
