Mark,
EDIT:
Just saw David, K2WPM's post....and, you can ignore my words here, 'cuz I do love that map! Let's you search by grid, zip code, address, etc.
Damn perfect for what you want! 
If you go to qrz.com, and click the dropdown arrow in the search box on the top left of the main page, you'll see that you can search by "county" and by "grid", as well as name / address, bio, and of course callsign.
Easy-peasy.
As example, if I search for "stearns" county (your county), I get 354 matches....but if I search using your grid (EN25rn) I get only you.
{BTW, if I put in my grid here in Florida, I get 116 matches....versus 1610 matches for my county....
but, more importantly, if I put the grid in for a friend's QTH, who is just about 35 miles from Hurricane Ian's landfall, I get 45 matches, versus 1554 matches for his county...}
So, if you wanted to find someone close, use her grid square....and also go one or two grid squares inland (as they might be more likely to have antennas and electric power, etc.)
Then click on their qrz pages, to see who has what experience and equipment, and then send those a quick email...
Again easy-peasy.
I hope this helps?
