Leading me to the Settings was the right place for me to look.
I do already have an Apple ID (I wouldn't have known this), and found it under Name, Phone Numbers, Email.
It lists my Apple ID as my iCloud email, and all I had to do was enter it, and my password (set up when my ex gave me the phone), and I was logged on to my account.

Thanks a whole bunch!
