this is what i did in Oregon and was succesfull:
1.The DMV looked up the last known registered owners.
2.i sent a DMV provided form to the person's adress on the DMV file. the form has to be sent certified mail.
3. either or PO fills the form out and mails it back to you OR: in my case the person had moved (or died) so the certified mail was returned to me un-opened.
4. i provided the DMV with the un-opened letter as proof that i tried to contact the PO, along with a few other DMV provided forms and they are all submitted to a "panel" that reviews the case.
5. 3 months later a title in my name comes in the mail.

it cost less than a hundred bucks in fees but boy i never will buy anything without a title again!
remember this is in oregon, but i still hope it helps
