Kathryn:  It's nice they you're trying to find an
explanation, but I think you've actually found a
flint.  
Since Peter has gone completely to the dark side, I
don't think he would have told the Order where the
Potters were because it would probably get him in
trouble.  
Lupin, Sirius or both said in the Shrieking Shack that
they thought there was a Mole in the Order so they
probably told Peter not to tell the Order the location
because someone could report to Voldemort.
I doubt Peter told anyone other than Voldemort that
Lily and James were at Godric's Hollow.
Therefore, there is no way that Dumbledore could know
the location and tell Hagrid.
So, unless there is something we don't know about the
Fidelius Charm, that's a mistake.

Nice find,
Kathryn
