vmonte responds:

I think that as soon as Voldemort heard the prophecy, he went for all
the Order members that had children. The DEs didn't just go after the
Potter's, and the LongBottoms, they went after the Mckinnon's and the
Bones' children as well. (It sound like a Moses type scenario, in
which Voldemort probably said: "just kill them all," to play it
safe.) I don't think he realized Harry as the "one" until after
Godric's Hollow.

Regarding the prophecy: Voldemort may have understood "born to those"
as meaning born from the Order.
