Only one branch? Perhaps you were doing housekeeping regularly
[deleting local feature branches after they were merged to master]
Also this one appears to be an intermediate branch that was never
pushed to remote - but was perhaps merged to a different feature
branch - and then to master]

The full list was the list of branches I deleted on the
server. Locally I have only a fraction of the branches [all of my
branches (some local/temporary), and a few of other developer branches
to which I might have pushed fixes for].

Here is the small list of local branches that I deleted from my clone.
