Tonight I discovered the 1885 Wisconsin census at familysearch.com.
This is a very useful census as it helps fills the gap between 1880 and 1900. Most of the 1890 federal census was destroyed by a fire.
You will find a transcribed page for each head of household and the actual images. I love having the real image. It makes it easy to look at neighbors.
The 1885 Wisconsin census also has a soldiers and sailors section which gives excellent details of the veterans.
