Hickengruendler:

Tom already had the Peverell ring, in the Pensieve scene, where he 
asked Slughorn about Horcruxes. Meaning that he killed his father 
before he learned about the Horcruxes. Still, I don't think this 
means anything. According to Slughorn, a wizard, who wants to make a 
Horcrux, takes advantage out of the fact, that his soul split because 
of a murder he commited. I don't think the murder had to happen 
shortly before making the Horcruxes. The soul splits and than you can 
make a Horcrux anytime you want.
