1860 US Census for Brooklyn, Windham CT missing pages?
I'm looking at the 1860 census for Brooklyn, Windham, Connecticut, which is a set of 53 images. However, the first page in the image set is page 68. This page obviously starts in mid-family, and the first complete dwelling is #582 (Family #562). I haven't been able to find any reference to known missing sections for Connecticut in 1860. 67 pages covering 561 (and a half) families is a surprising gap. Unfortunately, mine seems to be in it! :)
I've looked at other towns in Windham County to see if images for Brooklyn are hiding - no luck. Can anyone point me to a list of known missing parts for 1860? Is there a chance the digitization missed it, or is it the film/originals?

Page 67 contains the end of Pomfret and the beginning of Brooklyn: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-9YBG-LFX
To find it, I looked at the list of DGS/Films for Connecticut in the 1860 census which shows that Brooklyn follows Pomfret on the roll:

Thanks so much! I did see the list of towns, but not that small overlap. <3
