Joan Replies: Go to http://www.familysearch.com/ on the left of the page you can choose the US 1880 census. This is an all names census so he should be listed. He probably was working or away at school. There should be enough information so you can be pretty sure you have the right one. Good luck, Joan "Joan Best" <joanbest1@earthlink.net>
