Biographical History
In 1860, the portion of Colorado east of the Continental Divide was divided into Nebraska Territory north of the 40th parallel (Baseline Road) and Kansas Territory south of this line.
Harold S. Jacoby, sociology professor at University of Pacific (Stockton, Calif.) compiled this data. It describes Stockton wards in terms of gender, age and race (1950).
Colorado became a state in 1876.
In 1861, with the admission of Kansas as a state, the territory of Colorado was formed. Colorado became a state in 1876.
Series includes special schedules on health, agriculture, manufacturing, and mortality.
In 1861, with the admission of Kansas as a state, Colorado Territory was formed. Colorado became a state in 1876.
In 1860, that portion of Colorado east of the Continental Divide was divided into Nebraska Territory north of the 40th paralled (Baseline Road) and Kansas Territory south of this line.
The constitutionally mandated enumeration of the population of the U.S. was at first carried out by the U.S. district marshalls who reported to the Secretary of State. This was the case until May 23, 1850 when a Census Office was established within the Department of the Interior (9 Stat. 431).
The Office was re-established for each decennial census and disbanded when the work on the census was completed. A Superintendent of the Census was appointed to manage matters related to the census. This arrangement lasted until July 1, 1902 when the Census Office became a permanent office (5 Stat. 51) within the Department of the Interior.
Beginning with the 1850 schedules, information on each individual within a household was recorded, rather than only information on the head of the family. In addition, the schedules include the "nonpopulation census" which records information on mortality, agriculture, industry and "social statistics."
Mortality Schedules: 1850-1880:
The mortality schedules from 1850 to 1880 include the following common elements: name, age, sex, color, birthplace, occupation, marital status, and the date as well as the cause of death. Though these schedules share a great deal of common information, they vary from census to census. In addition to the common elements, the 1850 and 1860 schedules include the number of days the deceased was ill and whether the deceased was slave or free. The 1870 and 1880 schedules ask if the parents of the deceased were immigrants in addition to the common elements listed. The 1880 schedules also include the parents' birthplace, the name of the place where the fatal disease was contracted and the length of residence in the county where death occurred, as well as the name and signature of the attending physician.
Agricultural Schedules: 1850-1880.
The 1850 and 1860 schedules show the owner, agent, or tenant of farms with annual produce worth $100 or more. Information about the kind and value of acreage, livestock, machinery, and produce is also recorded. The 1870 and 1880 schedules record the same information as the earlier schedules but only for farms of three acres or more or for farms with an annual produce worth at least $500. The 1880 schedule is supplemented by special schedules which relate to specific phases of agriculture.
Industry Schedules: 1850-1880.
The 1850, 1860, and 1870 schedules all record information relating to industry on a schedule entitled "Products of Industry." These schedules record information on every manufacturing, mining, fisheries, mercantile, commercial, and trading business with an annual gross product of $500 or more. They call for the name of each company or product; amount of capital invested; quantity, kind and value of raw material used; kind of machinery; number of employees and amount of wages; and quantity, kind, and value of annual output.
The 1880 census uses a general schedule relating to manufacturing, which is supplemented by twelve special schedules for separate industries. Special agents, rather than the regular enumerators, collected statistics for certain industries and for industries in 279 cities of more than 8,000 inhabitants. The type of information collected was the same as that collected in the previous schedules.
Social Statistics: 1850-1880.
The social statistic schedules for 1850-1870 requested information on churches, schools, libraries, newspapers, taxes, wealth, the public debt, wages, paupers, and criminals. In 1880 the social statistic schedules were withdrawn from the regular enumerators and special agents were appointed to collect the information. Supplemental schedules were printed and distributed to the regular enumerators. These schedules were designed to collect information on the defective, dependent, and delinquent classes: insane inhabitants, idiots, deaf-mutes, blind inhabitants, homeless childen, inhabitants in prison, and pauper and indigent inhabitants.
Even after the establishment of the Census Office in the Department of the Interior, the terms "Census Bureau" and "Census Office" were used interchangeably until the term "Bureau of the Census" was formally fixed by legislation in 1954.
In 1903 the Census Bureau was transferredc from Interior to the Department of Commerce and Labor. Since 1913 it has been in the Department of Commerce. The compilation of the Statistical Abstract of the United States and responsibility for collecting and compiling foreign trade statistics were transferred from the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce to the Census Bureau in 1937 and 1941, respectively. In 1946 the functions and records of the Census Bureau relating to vital statistics were transferred to the U.S. Public Health Service of the Federal Security Agency.On January 1, 1972, the Bureau of the Census and the Bureau of Economic Analysis were made component parts of the newly created Social and Economic Statistics Administration, which serves as a center for collecting, compiling, analyzing, and publishing economic, social, and demographic data.
The Census Bureau is responsible for providing basic statistics about the people and economy of the Nation to assist the Congress, Government, and public in planning, carrying out, and evaluating programs. It collects, tabulates, and publishes a wide variety of statistical data for Government and private users.
