I was interested in the possibility that Harry and 
Voldemort might be related on the Muggle side about 
a year ago.  I did look exhaustively.  The only 
reference I found to Tom Riddle's original eye color 
is in "Lord Voldemort's Request":

"I wonder whether you know what it is, Tom?  Pick it 
up, have a good look!" whispered Hepzibah, and Voldemort 
stretched out a long-fingered hand and lifted the cup 
by one handle out of its snug silken wrappings.  
Harry thought he saw a red gleam in his dark eyes.
