Also found this couple in 1880 in Fredonia Borough, Mercer Co., PA, with 8 children, the youngest being 2 year old Jennie. All children were born in PA. You should know there are a few 1890 census fragments, but not in the areas you are looking for. Ancestry.com does have an index to them, with images of the pages. Mostly though, the areas available are so limited, people assume their ancestral areas are not available, and they're usually right. There is also an 1890 Veteran's census, with index. But that only tells the name of the veteran, not family members. If you have a vet living at that time, there is some good info on these censuses. And Ancestry and other places have tried to re-create the 1890 census using City Directories. That helps again only for heads of households or other adults listed in the directories. Good luck.
