I think I know what one of the horcruxes is.

Jen D.:
>> Dumbledore theorizes that LV made Nagini a horcrux with the
death of an old muggle man (Frank Bryce) and this was when he only
had the tiny scaly baby body. That to me seems very amazing. I was
under the impression he was pretty much helpless at that point.
Am I missing another muggle that DD could have been refering to?
If this is the murder, it definitely seems that Peter would have
had to have helped. Makes you wish Harry's dream could have gone
on another few minutes. <<
Hi Jen,
I believe it was indeed Frank that he was talking about (as he was
the only muggle out of Voldie's wand during the graveyard scene in
GoF). I re-read the passage about Frank's death, and it was indeed
Voldemort who cast the AK spell on Frank (in his baby-esque form).
Then Harry wakes up, so we don't know if the Horcrux-creating spell
was preformed or not. But this is what makes me think it was: It was
Voldemort himself that used his wand to kill Frank. In the graveyard
scene, it was Wormtail using Voldemort's wand to AK Cedric. Why not
just make Wormtail kill Frank? It must have taken a lot of energy to
AK Frank and possibly Horcrux his soul into Nagani, why weaken
himself further? He had already mentioned to Wormtail how weak he
(Voldie) was. He killed Frank for a reason, instead of making his
croonie do the deed.
I have another question about the Riddle house. Who is "the wealthy
man that owned the Riddle house" (pg 10, GoF, UK edition)? Any ideas?
Will it be important later on? Whoever it is still pays (paid) Frank
to tend it.
