Federal Census Records
Federal Censuses were taken for the state of South Dakota starting in 1890, although only one page survived. The 1900 Census is the next Federal Census available. In the 1860-1880 censuses, it will be listed under Iowa Territory. For links to Federal census indexes, see South Dakota Census.

Territory and State Census Records
State censuses were taken at the state-level and territorial censuses were taken by the federal government. See South Dakota Census for more information.
