Trying to find and copy bookmarks from a defunct computer (drive mounted as external drive)

My old computer is dead. However the drive is still functional and I have it attached to the new computer as an external drive. Unfortunately I can't find where Firefox stores the bookmark list (alas it's not in the 'favorites' folder). I want to bring those bookmarks into the new Firefox.

I basically copied my users file to new computer for email and Firefox and a few other applications.
