> 1.In the US by June 1st, 1880 is indexed. First and last name, with
variations of spellings, if any.
> 2. You do not need an exact year of birth, the search allows for a 5 year
> difference either way. The year of birth could be different with each
> census. It is hardly ever accurate! The closer the better.
> 3. You do not have to tell me this but sometimes it lowers the hits if
you
> don't have much information. What is the race? Black, White, Mulatto,
Native
> American or Mexican?
> 4. Oklahoma Territory is not in the census.
> 5. State if you know what state they resided in 1880. Sometimes you can
also narrow it down by state or country they were born in. I can also do
just a surname search, by state or by county. If it is a really uncommon
name I can do an entire US search, example, Gallichan, Redelberger, forget
Smith & Jones on that one.
> 6. Also try giving me the names of a spouse and/or children that I might
find on the 1880 census living with the person you're looking for.
Approximate year of birth. Many nicknames were used in the census.
