Rsync can copy files either by uid or by username (see the --numeric-ids
option).
Personally, I'd recommend you bite the bullet and unify all your account
details. If you've accounts in the range 1000-1999 (say), start your
new set of accounts from 2000.
find / -user 1234 -exec chown 2000 {} +
find / -group 987 -exec chgrp 2010 {} +
