If it was 1881 the address will be on her entry sheet. If its 1901 you may have to view the census pages before hers to see which institution she was an inmate of. nell

Baby, on the far left column of the census record it should show the address or name of the institution - it may help you work out if it is a prison or hospital etc. What was her name? Sarah
