1861 Census for Gayton

[Pippakit]

I have been trying to find my family in the above, but it seems to be missing. What happened to the returns for this area in 1861? Does anyone know?

[Wirral]

Have you tried looking for them under Heswall or just searching on place of birth rather than place of residence? I can't find Gayton as a name for a place of residence in the 1861 census, but can find lots of people who give Gayton as their place of birth.

TNA's catalogue shows RG9/2635 as covering Heswall Hamlet, Gayton Hamlet and Heswall-with-Oldfield. The entries look to be around folio 125-ish if you're using film/fiches/CD. What name are you after?
