Thanks for the tip.  I had already had a friend in Devon extract the relevant information from the Asylum records for me, in my case I was just trying locate the actual census entry to complete my records and like the original poster of this thread had been struggling to find her.

Hi, Just googled this message as I was having the same problem with being unable to find someone who was in the Devon County Lunatic Asylum in 1911.  I've finally found a way in by using the Advanced Search box selecting Devon in the County option and Exminster in Civil Parish.  Then to stop so many results I selected F for female in my case.  Still quite a few pages came up but I trawled through looking for possibilities.  My ancestor had an error in the spelling of her surname, only an initial for her christian name and an unknown place of birth.  Her age was correct though.   I hope this helps.
