Thanks Stephen and Dan! @Stephen The recent Tiger Shapefiles come with .prj files and do have a projection. Could there be a different issue then?

No. We have a few (10-15) layers. However, the shapefiles corresponding to each layer are different for every county. I shall also forward my query in the GeoMoose mailing list.
