If it's been a while since the file was deleted, chances are that the
disk space has been reused for other files.

There are two main resources you could go through to get the replacement
information: the National Office and your school's alumni office.  The
National Office can generate an Excel spreadsheet of all alumni for your
chapter, with the last known address according to the National Office.

You may be able to get more current last known addresses from your
school's alumni office.  Privacy rules and procedures vary, so you'll
have to check with them to see if it's possible, and if they need
anything from you.  I've seen an office refuse on privacy grounds, and
I've seen another office take the National Office list and merge in the
last known addresses, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses.
