The iPad should still be tied to your account, if you ever created one.

Thief reset to factory settings but keep trying find my iPad. When the thief turns it on you will get a location as I believe it's tied to the serial number of the device.

Have you called Apple to report it stolen? They might be able to flag the serial number and let the police know if someone registers it under a new account.

The find iPad, iPhone won't work if the feature is not enabled and it certainly doesn't work if the serial number has been registered to a new account. I tried it after I sold my first gen iPad to make sure it wasn't still associated with me.
