Voldemort created his first Horcrux (the diary I believe) by killing 
the Riddles or his uncle (I don't remember who he killed first). So, 
you don't need to kill a wizard to create a Horcrux, and therefore you 
don't need someone else's wand to create a Horcrux.

I don't believe Harry or his scar is a Horcrux. That will mean that 
Harry will have to die in order to kill Voldemort.
