OK, here is my take on what the six Horcruxes are and what murders 
created them:

(1) Riddle's diary (destroyed): Moaning Myrtle
(2) Slytherin's ring (destroyed): Riddle Sr.
(3) Hufflepuff's cup: Hepzibah Smith
(4) Slytherin's locket (at Grimmauld or stolen by Mundungus): not 
sure who was killed for this one
(5) A Ravenclaw artifact. (Heard a theory somewhere--don't remember 
whether it was on here--that it's a wand, and maybe the one that had 
been prominently displayed at Ollivander's. This came from a theory 
that the four House artifacts corresponded to the suits of tarot: 
Gryff's sword, Hufflepuff's cup, Ravenclaw's wand, and the Slyth 
locket substituting for Pentacles/Coins.)  The murder connected with 
this one would probably have been someone symbolically connected with 
Ravenclaw, as Hepzibah was with Hufflepuff. Perhaps a blood 
descendant.
(6) Either Harry (if a Horcrux can be created by accident), or else 
something created since LV returned--either Nagini or Wormtail's 
hand.  I personally believe LV originally intended to make the last 
HC a Gryff artifact, and that the reason he wanted to teach at 
Hogwarts was to off Dumbledore and horcrux Gryff's sword. (I think DD 
is probably the blood heir of Gryffindor and that's why he has all 
his stuff.) However, the prophecy changed LV's mind and he decided to 
make his last HC from the death of the boy prophesied to challenge 
him instead.
