The census records for the entire 1890 US Census were exposed to extreme water damage in 1921, when a fire occurred in the Department of Commerce building. Little effort was made to remediate the damage and the papers deteriorated while the Bureau of the Census and the Library of Congress debated what to do about them. Historians and preservationists were not consulted. In 1933, Congress approved a list of documents to be destroyed, which, perhaps mistakenly, included the damaged 1890 Census records. The documents were probably destroyed some time in 1934 or 1935.
The data on individual households for the 1800 and 1810 US Censuses is also no longer extant.
