Notes missing after ios16 update

I do not have a “deleted” folder and I am missing hundreds of important notes after updating to ios16. I tried refreshing and backing up. Nada. Help! I have an XR.

iPhone 6s, iOS 12

If you have Notes stored in iCloud

Settings, Your Name, iCloud, Notes, (Show all), turn it on

If you store your notes in another email account

Settings, Notes, Accounts, then in the reevant account check if the account has Notes turned on.
