IU has some of these for Indiana from the National Archives on
microfilm, actually they are not maps but descriptions but usually quite
useful:  T1224 Descriptions of Census Enumeration Districts 1830-1890
and 1910-1950.  The finding aid is at:
https://estore.archives.gov/T1224_AID.pdf

A3378 Enumeration District maps for the 12^th through 16^th Censuses of
the U.S. 1900-1940 and M1930 Enumeration District maps for the 15^th
Census of the U.S. 1930   might also be of interest to people.

Hi all,

I seem to remember from looking into this that the census bureau did not
publish enumeration district maps until some time into the 1900's.� The
enumeration districts were created at the local level and local offices
hand-drew maps.� If they exxist for 1880, the only copy may be at NARA.

�

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?
