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.

Subject: 1880 census maps?

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?
