1861 census for St Briavels (General)
I am new to this list and hope someone who is experienced in research in the St Briavels Parish can answer a query I have.
Today I was looking at the 1861 census for St Briavels on Ancestry. I see there were Enumeration District Descriptions for Districts 7, 8 and 9 for St Briavels.
Can anyone enlighten me - were there Districts 1 to 6 for St Briavels Parish in the 1861 census?
Ancestry appears to have only Districts 7,8, and 9 - is this another case of Ancestry and missing images or were there no Districts 1 to 6 for St Briavels in 1861?
With appreciation for any assistance.

I'm sure its just as simple as Enumeration Districts 1 - 6 did not align to St Briavels Parish :-)
Enumeration Districts 10 and 11 align to Tidenham Parish
Ayleburton is District 2
Alvington is District 1
etc.
