I cannot find a bookmark folder, it is buried somewhere.

Somehow I accidentally moved a folder to somewhere else within my extensive collection of bookmarks, likely as a subfolder of some unrelated folder. When I go to show all bookmarks, and type in the folder name, it brings up all the bookmarks within that folder. If I click on "edit this bookmark" on one of the bookmarks, it will show that folder . . . BUT . . . it will not show me WHERE that folder is located. I have been manually going through many many folders searching for this folder but cannot find it so far. Is there an easy way to locate a particular bookmarks folder?

Thanks very much. The add-ons were quite helpful for searching bookmarks.
