 If no one knows Voldemort's true identity (except Dumbledore and 
 Harry) then why does Hagrid say Voldemort was in Slythrin? ...-Maritz

Reply:
In the last chapter of Chamber of Secrets, Dumbledore tells Harry 
that "Very few people know that Lord Voldemort was once called Tom 
Riddle."  I would expect that Hagrid, as one of the people that 
Dumbledore trusts, would be privy to this piece of information. As 
Hagrid went to Hogwarts around the same time as Tom, he would know 
which House Riddle/Voldemort was in.
