JW:
This is on my list of questions to be resolved in DH.  The mystery of 
LV's wand - and it is obvious LV did not carry it with him - leads 
readers to believe that at least one more person was in the Potter hide-
away (in addition to three Potters and LV).  Was it Peter?  Was it 
Snape? Lupin? DD?  Somebody from the future time-traveling back to the 
scene of the crime?  The speculation goes on and on.  Where was LV's 
wand kept until GOF, and who kept it?  Was Peter (in his rat animagus 
state for all those years) capable of carrying it, or did he (or 
somebody else) hide it for all that time.  Did Peter then make a pit 
stop to retrieve the wand before wandering off to Albania to team up 
with LV?  Then again, the first time we see LV with ANY wand is in the 
beginning of GOF in the Riddle house, when he kills the caretaker.  Was 
it hidden THERE?  By whom?

Lots of questions, a myriad of guesses and speculations.  I have not 
heard any idea that I find provable or otherwise compelling.
