Found a potential deal, can't find sellers

Hello,

So I was door knocking a neighborhood looking for traditional sellers and spoke with a woman who pointed me to a home down the street that she believed was in bad shape and had specific knowledge of the seller being older and wanting to sell. I have subsequently visited the house about 6 times. I have left handwritten notes and business cards with no response. The kicker is that the tax record shows a different address a few cities away. I drove by that address only to discover that its a mobile home park of about 200 homes. The address on the tax record doesn't show a space number and I asked the park manager if she was familiar with the name and she said no. 

What do you think the best way would be to find the seller? I was thinking that I should start a mailing campaign and see if that works.... Any suggestions would be great!

Thank you,

Chris
