zanooda;

I think JKR said somewhere that LV made Horcrux!Nagini with Bertha Jorkins's death. I also think that LV wanted his rebirth ritual to be done by his own yew-and-phoenix feather wand, so he gave it to Wormtail. When he appeared before Harry and Cedric at the graveyard, Wormtail was holding Baby!Mort in one hand and his wand in another. Baby!Mort himself was wandless. Wormtail probably had Bertha's wand at that point, but, as I said, LV wanted him to use his (LV's) own wand for the rebirth magic.
