Colorado Census Notes

New Mexico Territory was established in 1850 and included present day Colorado and Arizona.  Colorado Territory was separated from New Mexico Territory  in 1861 and Arizona Territory in 1863.  These are important facts when searching census records in these areas during these time periods.

Federal Colorado census records begin in 1870 and continue every 10 years including census years: 1870, 1880, 1900, 1910, 1920 & 1930.  You will find early Coloradoans in the 1850 and 1860 Federal census records for New Mexico.

1890 Colorado Federal Census records were destroyed by fire including the Veterans and Widows schedules.

Soundex code indexes for Federal Colorado census records are available on microfilm for census years: 1880, 1900 and 1920.

Colorado state census records are known to exist for years: 1861, 1866 (partial) and 1885.
