Hickengruendler:

The ministry? I mean, surely the attack on Godric's Hollow didn't 
pass by unnoticed. The muggle authorities will have found out, and 
the MoM probably learned pretty soon, who the victims were. 

Or maybe another wizard or witch was living was living in the village 
(it was named after a wizard, after all, therefore it might not be 
unreasonable to think, that more wizards are living their), and they 
saw Voldemort arriving. Later they heard the explosion or maybe even 
saw Vapormort flying away, and heard that the baby survived. 
Obviously I'm just guessing. This doesn't explain how anyone could 
have known about what exactly happened. But then, at least right now 
we also don't know how Dumbledore could have known.
