People in institutions (workhouse, hospital, gaol, etc.) will be listed under their initials. Have you tried searching that way yet?

Zion, No help to you I'm afraid, but I am also trying to find someone on the 1911 census, this one in either Scotland or Ireland, I have tried everything, and have come to the conclusion that some people were simply ''missed off''.....either by mistake, or they didn't want to be included, for whatever reason......Del.

how do i check hospitals ?

You search by using initials only. In this case surname M, and forename J. I searched the 1911 census for a JM, aged 82, born Co Down & Presbyterian. None were listed, so it doesn't look as though he was in hospital.

I can see 3 or 4 John Moore deaths, all born around 1829, registered in Newtownards in the period 1901 – 1911. Have you investigated any of them?
