The Colorado State Census of 1885, the only state census ever conducted in Colorado, is a valuable resource for genealogists researching family histories in the post-territorial period. This census provides detailed information about each household member, including names, ages, birthplaces, occupations, and often citizenship status.
For those tracing their roots in Colorado, the 1885 census offers a snapshot of families during a time of significant population growth and westward migration. It also bridges the gap between United States Federal Censuses, providing important details for anyone with ancestors who settled in Colorado during this era.
