US Black Heritage Project; USBH 1880 Project
Goal: To create a profile for every Black American enumerated on the 1880 US federal census in Texas.
- Total Population of Texas in 1880: 1,591,641
- Total Black Population of Texas in 1880: 393,384
Note: In the table below, the spreadsheets/"done" counties with (HOH) next to them only had households with a Black head of household included in the county's spreadsheet. Eventually, the USBH project will get other Black residents of those counties added to the spreadsheet.
