I think you need to look at why the user that created the files in the
first place isn't known to Cygwin. If you can solve that problem, you
may find the rest falls into place.
No clue, I assume it is some bug in cygwin, since this happens to any file
created on this drive via Cygwin.

OK, take a look at <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#ntsec-ids>.
You'll want to use 'mkpasswd' and 'mkgroup' to get the passwd and group
files fixed up.
