Clark Family - George W. Shaffer - 1880 & 1890 US Federal Census - 1895 Iowa State Census

This 1880 census of the George W. Shaffer family was found 2 February 2024. it is page of 25. What is special about this census is that the family is shown living in Iowa. I had found a GeorgeW. Shaffer in the veteran's Census of 1890. We are very lucky that George was found on the few pages that were left after after the fire and water damage  that occured in the early 1900's at the National Archives.
