how do i recovery my old phone contacts

Hi monicamishaw1

Welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.

Apple support's article (link below)

tells about adding you contacts if they didn't transfer:

Finish setting up your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Or

Seems when you add your eMail accounts to your iPhone you also add the contacts.

(They are likely the same contacts that are on your old phone)

How to: Add and remove email accounts on iPhone – Apple Support

and

How to: Import contacts from your SIM card to your iPhone - Apple Support

Hope this helps :-)
