Nevada Census Microdata, 1860-1920
Listed in DataCite
The Nevada Census Microdata provides a complete-count transcription of the manuscript census pages from the state of Nevada, for the federal censuses of 1860, 1870, 1880, 1900, 1910, and 1920.
Description
It includes nearly all of the information that was recorded on the census forms, though the questions asked by census-takers changed over time. This data can help researchers investigate historical questions related to immigration, migration, industrialization, work, and family.
The multiple years covered by the data permit valuable longitudinal studies, at least within the state of Nevada. Future phases of the project will include more extensive documentation and refining field names and values to make this data as compatible as possible with other sources used in historical demography, such as those published by the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS).
