Thank you.  That explains that.  I hadn't thought through the 
implications of Wormtail being the secret-keeper and him having the 
opportunity to hide the wand.

Angie replies:

I realize he wouldn't have had a wand when he first escaped, but 
going to the someone-else-bought-it-theory, I just wonder if any 
wizard is allowed to have more than one wand?

Angie again:  No, I mean wizards who are at least 17, the age of 
majority/adulthood in the WW.  The reason I qualified the question is 
because we know the MOM monitors the wand activity of underaged 
wizards (hence the Harry-Dobby flying pudding fiasco in COS and the 
Dementor episode in OOP).
