7 Different People

It just goes to show you what you don't remember from the 7th Harry Potter book when you've only read it twice and a half. Yes, of course twice and a half is an amount.

I didn't realize that the 7 Horcruxes were destroyed by 7 different people - chart thingie stolen from the 'Profile of Lord Voldemort' page of the Harry Potter Lexicon (HPL) :

Object Murder (BLC) Date created Hiding place Broken by
Diary Moaning Myrtle murder in 1942; Horcrux created fall of 1943 Given to Lucius Malfoy Harry (CS17)
Ring Tom Riddle Sr. 1943 Gaunt house Dumbledore (DH33)
Diadem Albanian peasant possibly 1945 (DH31) Room of Requirement Crabbe (DH31)
Cup Hepzibah Smith c.1946 Given to Bellatrix Lestrange Hermione (DH31)
Locket Muggle tramp c.1946 Cave Ron (DH19)
scar rebounding curse 1981 (accidental; technically not a Horcrux) Voldemort (DH34)
Nagini Bertha Jorkins 1994 --- Neville (DH36)

Isn't that interesting? Does anyone else think that JKR had to have done that on purpose? Or am I the only one who thinks that? ??
