Finally got around to watching TFA a second time earlier this week. It pains me to say it, but I'm now part of the "Rey Skywalker" camp. As Hack pointed out, the saber calls to her and R2D2 turns on to complete the map when she shows up. But the clincher to me is Luke's reaction when he sees Rey. If you look closely, you can see tears in his eyes and some shock on his face. That's an awfully strong emotional reaction for someone meeting either 1) a complete stranger or 2) his long lost niece. No, that's the reaction of a parent reuniting with a missing child. Finally, I leave you with this...

That's solid. I actually wondered during the movie how the hell they recovered that and Vader's mask.

When in doubt, the most simple explanation is usually the correct one. Since Ben is Han & Leia's son, Vader's grandson, I'm assuming Luke divulged the location of Vader's funeral pyre on Endor to Leia. Leia then passes it on to Ben. Or Ben could have felt it calling to him through the Force. The burning of Vader's body & armor could've created a dark side Force nexus on Endor similar to the one we see at the cave on Dagobah. But I'd go with theory 1 where Luke told Leia then Leia tells Ben.
As for Luke's saber, I'm guessing they'll explain it's recovery in a manner similar to that of the now defunct Legends continuity. It falls to the bottom of Cloud City and is recovered from there by the Imperials. Luke's hand provides genetic material for cloning. And literally as I typed that it made me think...could Snoke be a cloned Luke that got disfigured somehow?

Freaking clone of Skywalkers would be a hell of a way to end the series.

There is some books out and that are coming out that is supposed to fill in the blanks. Supposedly the book of the Force Awakens has some thoughts by Luke. I personally think after killing the padawan and other Jedi, Ben couldn't kill his cousin. He just decides to drop her off on Jakku. That is why she was dropped off with the junk dealer. It is pretty obvious the junk dealer wasn't very good to Rey. Being young she might not have realized Ben killed everyone so she would have wanted to leave with him. It would fit in with him being conflicted between the Light and Dark side. The book mentions that after killing Han he actually feels weaker in the force where he thought he would be more powerful.
If only Ben knew Rey survived it would make sense that no one came to get her. Everyone probably thought she was dead along with every other padawan.

In the script it says that Luke knows who Rey is.

Disney Infinity Games may have spoiled it. I'll try to find it later, but the game has a line where you can hear Kylo Ren yell at Rey: "Fight me, cousin!"

Here it is. Should be cued up. I'm now seeing perhaps he's saying "Face me....curses!" I'll leave it up to your ears.
