How can I find a LOST endowment ?

I am hoping someone on this site can help me.
Back in 1992 I was a newly divorced young woman & I was fairly clueless about money(financial wisdom and maturity hadn't yet kicked in). I purchased an endowment policy/mortgage when I bought my new home. I bought this from my uncle who worked for Cannon Lincoln because I felt sorry for him & he needed the sale. I paid £53.41 a month on the endowment for 5 years & then I sold my house & moved. I sold it for the exact same price as I paid for it and in 5 years had not paid any of my mortgage off. There was no cash return on the sale. I recall asking about the endowment - was told it was worthless & so asked no more questions. My uncle is now a long time dead. Roll on 20 years, & the endowment has never crossed my mind. However now I have hit upon tough times again & I am wondering whatever happened to my 5 years of endowment payments. They certainly didnt scratch the sides of my mortgage. I understand Cannon Lincoln no longer exist. Q: Does anyone think my funds still exist and if so - what should I do now?
