It is sometimes difficult to find out who the copyright owner is.

When you come right down to it, it's the copyright owner's responsibility to provide that specific information at least in the form of a copyright notice. No, it's not legally required since January 1, 1978, but it's a foolish owner who fails to provide it or to require its inclusion in the copyright notice of any arrangement. Sometimes all you can do is make a good-faith effort to comply, document what you have done, and see whether the copyright owner pops out of the woodwork. Failure to provide you with that information would make your defence much easier in case of an infringement suit.
