Wow, was that a coordinated assault?? ^_^...I've had ideas that tended towards these theories in the past...BUT...in an interview JKR did say:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Is Voldemort some sort of relative of Harry's?  Possibly his mother's brother?

JKR:  I'm laughing...that would be a bit Star Wars, wouldn't it?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Which implies no..but it could mean that she' s trying to throw us off the trail..or it could mean..well..

It could mean anything actually...make of it what you will.
