I don't think they did population maps in 1880 in that manner.  The 1880
Census did produce some maps but it was for the Forest Trees of North
America volume and the Mortality & Vital Statistics volume.
However, the 1890 Census did produce a statistical atlas (one of my
favorite publications) that covered 100 years of information (1890 was
the centennial census).  After begging for years, the Census finally
updated that atlas for the 2000 Census which give you data from 1890 - 2000.
However,I don't think they published anything in 1880 at the district
level like they do now.

I’ve had a reference question about whether we have any “maps of the
1880 Census enumeration districts for the state of Utah.”  It doesn’t
appear so, but I wonder how detailed any census maps were back then.
Did the census produce (and distribute) such maps that would be
available somewhere?  Alternatively, has anyone in more recent times
managed to reconstruct such a map for GIS purposes?
