1880 Census, Sullivan County, Tennessee — 10 Comments

  1. I found my great, great, great, grandfather’s grave at Weaver Cemetary in Bristol. His name was Thomas J Campbell and his wife, I believe, is Mary. Birth 1843 and Death 1900. He was a confederate soldier. I am having a very hard time finding information on him. My grandfather has been looking for information on our family for as long as I can remember. Can you point me in a good direction?

  2. Thanks to everyone that transribes these census. I am looking for more information about Stanford L. Jenkins( 1828-1908 ), my great , great grandfather. I know he owned land and had a foundry in Bluff City Tennessee up to 1881. He is buried at Mountain View Cemetary.

  3. Thanks so much for all the work. However I couldn’t open several of them.
    I am looking for Margaret Peggy Wells. Thank you!!

    • We’re working on fixing all our census records! We’re on 1850 right now and working our way up. We’ll get them reorganized and re-uploaded as soon as possible. Thanks!

  4. I just found this site again. There used to be a free site to find all the US Census info for every state, but now it seems you have to join an organization to get it. I was on Ancestry.com a couple of years and I guess I will have to get on again. You have done an excellent job with this site. I will look again for sure… Thanks, Wayne

  5. Often, there was a listing of deaths for the year or 12 mo. prior to the US Census. According to her tombstone, Mary Strickler Shipley died 8 Dec. 1879. Is there any death list for Sullivan Co. that has information about her?
    Thanks!

  6. Hello! I get an error message for the Bristol 1880 census. Is there any other way to see it? Thank you!

    • Colette,

      Sorry to hear that. I checked a few of the pages, and didn’t have a problem. Can you tell me please which pages gave you the error?

      Charles
