Are you actively sharing your location from one of your devices? Link-> Share your location with your family - Apple Support


If you aren’t sharing a location, then it won’t appear on Find My for other people. The shared shared location will not specify a device, just the device’s location you chose to share from.


If you need to find a specific device, then log into iCloud.com with your Apple ID to find your devices.
