Summary View help for Summary
This project expands the Population Database of the United States in 1880. It adds previously missing information on health, education, employment, non-family relationships, and nuptiality to a ten-percent sample of the 1880 non-Hispanic White population, and a twenty-percent sample of households containing Blacks, American Indians, Chinese, and Hispanics. It also creates linked representative samples of individuals and family groups from the censuses of 1860, 1870, 1900, and 1910 to the 1880 census.
