1. Go to the bookmarked page.
2. Click on the bookmark icon in the location bar. Beside "Folder", it
should tell you the name of the folder the bookmark resides in.
3. If you don't know where that folder is located, click on the down
arrow beside it, which will open the folder tree.
(I have two down arrows, one in the folder field and one to the right of
it: I assume the rightmost one is the one intended.)
This may be what should happen but I found that "Other Bookmarks" was
highlighted rather than the correct parent folder. Logically, such an
approach can't work if the same site is bookmarked twice in different
folders. You need something that is linked to the actual search result.
The Show Parent Folder (identified by JAS below) and Go Parent Folder
extensions address the problem to some extent. I loaded this
<caa:addon/show-parent-folder> from the Classic Add-ons Archive and was
able to add a 'Parent Folder' column to the bookmark search results.
Unfortunately, you only see the immediate parent folder: I suppose you'd
use the Go Parent Folder, not tested, to reverse up a folder path.

I have an old add on, Show Parent Folder-2.1-sm+fx.xpi that still
works in my SM version 2.49.4, it adds a Parent Folder column to the
right side of the bookmark manger (Ctrl/B) and when you do a search
in the manager it show which folder or folders it is in.
There's also <caa:addon/sidebar-bookmarks-search-plus> (has to be
converted for SM 2.49.5) which adds a folder display under a search in
the Bookmarks Sidebar, but in SM-2.49.5 the converted extension doesn't
sync to the clicked search result above the folder pane as intended. By
design it doesn't affect the Manage Bookmarks window.
