I think, and this may be way out there, but maybe the other order 
member is Regulus Black.  Most people think that Regulus is the RAB 
who took the real locket (and JKR herself almost agrees in her 
interview with mugglenet and LC, part 2

MA: R.A.B.

JKR: Ohhh, good.

[All laugh.]

JKR: No, I'm glad! Yes?

MA: Can we figure out who he is, from what we know so far?

[Note: JKR has adopted slightly evil look here]

JKR: Do you have a theory?

MA: We've come up with Regulus Black.

JKR: Have you now?

MA: Uh-oh.

[Laughter.]

JKR: Well, I think that would be, um, a fine guess.

MA: And perhaps, being Sirius's brother, he had another mirror – 

JKR: [drums fingers on soda can] 

MA: Does he have the other mirror, or Sirius's mirror — 

JKR: I have no comment at all on that mirror. That mirror is not on 
the table. [Laughter from all; Jo's is maniacal.]


Add that to the part DD says to Draco in the US editions of the book, 
about being able to hide people...

(US p591) "Come over to the right side Draco, and we can hide you 
more completely than you can possibly imagine. What is more, I can 
send members of the Order to your mother tonight to hide her likewise.
Nobody would be surprised that you had died in your attempt to kill 
me-forgive me, but Lord Voldemort probably expects it. Nor would the
Death Eaters be surprised that we had captured and killed you mother-
it is what they would do themselves, after all. Your father is safe at
the moment in Azkaban....When the time comes, we can protect him too."


That is my idea,
