There is a very good track record in canon of fugitives getting a 
hold of wands. Sirius was still on the run in GoF and OotP, and he 
had a wand (he apparated, etc.) By the end of OotP in the firefight, 
all the DE's that escaped from Azkaban fought with wands. None of 
these wands acted like Neville's inherited wand (unpredicatable, 
weak). They were full-force, tailored wands. The DE's must have been 
fit for and bought them somewhere. 

Barring a heretofore-unmentioned Wand Shop in Knockturn Alley, 
Ollivander's is the place you go when you need a wand. All the 
escapees needed wands and got them. Thus, so far, Ollivander supplied 
them. 

And there is that troublesome anagram -- An Evil Lord -- for 
Ollivander.
