No idea where John William Holden is...

[benhc123]

Hi,

John William Holden was born 29th November 1875 in Lincoln. He enlisted in the Royal Navy on 2 February 1897 in London. He was married to Lavinia Owen.

He served on the HMS Duke of Wellington between 1 Jan 1901 and 18 March 1901, but I can't find him on any census.

Can anyone help find him? I'm also struggling to find him in 1911. By the end of 1901 he was in a mental hospital in Lincoln.

Thanks.

Also very likely to be him. I assume "Institution" means mental hospital. Thanks.
