And now Me:

page 19 of GoF distinctly states that Voldemort is the one who uses his wand in order to kill Frank Bryce..

"He was screaming so loudly that he never heard the the words the thing in the chair spoke, as it raised a wand. There was a flash of green light, a rushing sound, and Frank Bryce crumpled. He was dead before he hit the floor."

 

I thught there was also something in there about Voldemort using his wand on Wormtail to perform Cruciatis on him, but I can't put my finger on it at this time. Maybe I'm just dreaming that one.  

However, it would appear that Voldemort did have the capability to use his wand, even prior to the ceremony in the graveyard.  So it's likely that it WAS Voldemort who killed Bertha.  And since Cedric was also killed with Voldemort's wand, it would appear that Wormtail was carrying his Master's wand to the graveyard, knowing that his Master was going to be placed into a cauldron of boiling potion.  I'm sure that no wand could have withstood that and there was really no reason to, IMHO.

Lea, who apologizes if someone else has already brought out this point - she is somewhat behind in reading threads today!
