If you can view her tree, try searching all member trees for a named person she lists. You should find that person in a tree owned by a Lucy.

If you click on the 'find out more' button, you ought to be able to send her a message.

For what it's worth, a few years ago I had a random tree access. The tree owner said she hadn't opened it. It remains a mystery to this day

Some people open their trees just because you have helped at some tine.

I had trees opened when I helped and even for just replying to a chat thread!!

Are you able to view her tree? Do you still have the notification email GR sent?

If you can't find anything in your GR inbox or list of contacts but the above apply, contact GR
[email protected]

It might have been a blib. Its happened to others on occasions.

I received email notification that a lady called Lucy Cooper has kindly opened her tree for me - but I have no idea who she is and why I must have asked for this? She is not in my list of contacts and not in the sent messages list. Any advice how I can message this person under these circumstances please?
