I finally found back this page and updated the links therein:

https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Upgrading_GRASS_database

It contains:
Upgrading the GRASS database from older to recent GRASS versions
1.1 Migrating from GRASS 4 to GRASS 5
1.2 Migrating from GRASS 4 to GRASS 6
1.3 Migrating from GRASS 5 to GRASS 6
1.4 Migrating from GRASS 6 to GRASS 7

That should be doable, since conversion tools are included.

> I have quite a lot of the original shape files that I could import again, but not the raster data and DEMs created from it.

I would expect that the raster maps from GRASS GIS 5 can be opened in
any later version without problems.
If not, please send the error message.
