At top left, hit "search", and choose search all member trees.
Search for a name you think is in their tree.
You'll get a list of hits - some may look likely, and some are obviously referring to the wrong person. You can then click on the "Find out more" link and send them a message. This will be forwarded to the email addy that GR has on file for the tree owner, even if they're no longer an active member.

In the message, I would say how that person relates to you,and give enough info abt that person that they can recognize that you are talking abt the same person..

Good luck.
