The Riddles that were in the first chapter are Voldemort's Father and 
Grandparents. Voldemort is the dark haired teen-age boy that Frank 
sees around the house. He Avada Kedavra'd his dear ol dad and 
grandparents. Remember, Voldemort's mum named him after his dad. 
That's why he's referred to as Tom Riddle. A bit confusing at first, 
but it makes sense once you think about it.
