1880

This is the tenth federal census taken for the United States. All persons in each household are listed by name.

All dwellings in each census district were given a number. Each family was also assigned an identification number. Each census sheet listed the county as well as town or township.

Several new and wonderful questions were added for this census. Everyone listed their relationship to the Head of the Household, their marital status, their actual place of birth and the place of birth for each parent. What wonderful additional treasures of information for genealogists!
