Mark,
You could try using the following extensions:
List Deleted Content Author Users
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/List+Deleted+Content+Au
thor+Users
Change Content Author
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Change+Content+Author
They have helped me in the past to clean up deleted users.

Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Deleting admin user blocks execution of some
pages

Due to another issue, I had to recreate some users
(including the one
I had been using as the administrator). Instead of just hiding the old
users, I decided to delete them. It was a mistake to delete the old
admin user because, now, scripts that were last modified by that user
will not execute (even by the new admin user). The new admin user
needs make some new modification to the script in order to execute it.
Is there a mechanism by which I could get a list of all the scripts
that were last modified by that old user so that I could go in and
clean up this problem at one go instead of one by one as I stumble
onto those pages? Is there another workaround a person can use when
they shoot themselves in the foot like this?
Note that I tried restoring the old admin user from
the deleted documents.
He then appears in the user directory as expected. But the scripts
will still not execute. So it appears that restoring a user has the
effect of creating a new user with the same attributes as the old one
instead of actually recreating the old user. Could this be considered
an issue (defect or improvement) worthy of recording in JIRA?
Its not exactly that. It does recreate your user exactly as it was.
But restoring a the user does not automatically add it in groups since this
information is not stored in the user profile.
