South Carolina Census Notes: 

Federal South Carolina census records are available to the public for 1790, 1800, 1810, 1820, 1830, 1840, 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930.

1890 Federal South Carolina census records were destroyed by a warehouse fire in 1921, however the special schedule for Veterans and Widows did survive the fire and can be used as a census substitute.

South Carolina State Census Records:

State census Enumerations were taken in 1829, 1839, 1868, 1869 and 1875.  

Surviving SC state census records:

1829: Fairfield & Laurens Districts.

1839: Kershaw & Chesterfield Districts.

1869: All counties with the exception of Kershaw, Oconee & Spartanburg.

1875: Clarendon, Newberry & Marlboro counties are complete.  Partial 1875 state census records are available for Abbeville, Beaufort, Fairfield, Lancaster & Sumter counties.

See: Census Info at SC Archives

If searching in Berkeley County, be aware it is not the original county.  The early Berkeley District was discontinued.

The discontinuance and reorganizing of districts can make South Carolina census records research confusing.  Refer often to the county and district formation data.  Early maps are helpful.  

See: Early Evolution of SC Districts and Counties
