Also, when Draco disarms Dumbledore, the wand flies off the roof instead of into Draco's hands, and that is why Draco doesn't keep the wand and Dumbledore is buried with it. I often wondered what happened to wizards' wands when they die.
I was very disappointed in Harry's return trip to Godric's Hollow. I thought he'd find more answers there, but at least he got to visit his parents' graves.

It isn't the killing of the owner that gives one that control; rather it is the taking of the wand that bestows ownership. This is why Voldemort couldn't own the wand, even after killing Snape.
