Thank you for your replies.
I am looking for William Farrell who was born in approx 1846, so would have been about 65 in 1911. I have been unable to find him on the 1911 census.
I have no proof he was in the workhouse in 1911. I have however found a death certificate for someone of that name in the workhouse in 1921, district of St Peter's 3. I cannot be sure the death certificate is the right one because the informant is not a family member.
I was hoping that I could solve both mysteries by tying the two together.
