I beleive you tried find -inum.

Do you have any lost+found directory at the root top level of the
filesystem?

I haven't seen any mention of the version of the FreeBSD you are
running, nor the type of file system you are having problem with.

If you have spare disk/partition, I beleive you could always copy
everything (but the problem files) to a new partition and newfs the
one making problem.

best regards,

Olivier
