I couldn't find any information about the "lost" moons you mentioned. Tell me more. What is the name of one or all of those moons?

The moons are: S/2004 S 7, S/2004 S 12, S/2004 S 13, S/2004 S 17, S/2006 S 1, S/2006 S 3, S/2007 S 2, S/2007 S 3.

There are short Wikipedia articles for each one.

JPL provides orbital elements but presumably they are not quite correct, otherwise we could locate them: https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/?sat_elem
