It sounds like the item chooser is the way to go.

Double tap on find xxx, where xxx is the word you searched for and see if that 
helps.
I’m not sure after trying it again if it is as good as it used to be.
I thought it would take you right to the first occurance.
Perhaps the item chooser approach that Anna mentioned is a better one.

 Richard,

Thanks for these detailed instructions on how to find text on a Safari web 
page. I followed your instructions and after clearing the text in the search 
bar and typing the text I wanted to search for, I single finger swiped right 
through a list of web pages until I reached a heading that said On this page 9 
matches. Unfortunately, double tapping on that heading didn't take me to those 
matched items. I could not figure out how to get to the matches and I'm hoping 
someone can further direct me.

Thanks for the help.

Do not double tap the search button, but instead flick right with one finger, 
you will find an option to find on page, or it may do it automatically. Either
