I also have the 1880 census from LDS, but the spellings are sometimes off. I found my Rosar family in Penn. Under Roner. I knew they were in the census since I had a copy of it - I just wanted to verify some information. It took me quite a while to find it. So you have to try many spellings and also I have tried just doing a search on a first name with approx. dob. But for the most part the 1880 cd rom is great Lenora from Wisconsin
