Hi If someone was in hospital or visiting on census night would they have been included. I ask as I have a rellie who is on 1881 & 1891 census but not on the 1901. I know he was still alive as I have his marriage certificate for 1908 but he was a widower then and I was wondering if he could have been visiting his sick wife in hospital and not been included.

I was under the impression that it was where ever you actualy slept that night.So if you stayed in hospital that night,you'd be under the hospital address. |

If you go on the 1901 census, you can usually do a search on institution, which would include hospitals.If they were a visitor somewhere else or at another house they should have been put down in that household, but the enumerator's sometimes overlooked this info as the householder didn't always tell them they had a visitor because they didn't usually live there.
