People didn’t make many written records of New Testament events until a few centuries after Jesus ascended.

I don't know anything about this particular papyrus, and I'm not legitimizing it, but a lot of what eventually wound up in scripture was passed down verbally for many generations before being put into the written word. There could have been stories of Christ's youth that were passed down verbally and finally put into writing significantly later.
