Generally because of odd issues like this, storing items in the Trash is not recommended, but luckily as long as Time Machine has backed up the system while the items were in the trash then a backup does exist for it that can be recovered. You can use Spotlight searching from within Time Machine to try to locate the file (using Quick Look to help this procedure) however, there are times when documents have been placed in the trash before Time Machine can back them up elsewhere. When this happens it may be difficult to remember exactly where the items originated from on disk, so if you empty the trash and then need to recover a document it may be difficult to locate it using Time Machine. The trash in OS X is generally used to delete items, but because items can be placed in the trash without being immediately deleted, people commonly end up storing items in the trash.
