I am trying to generate a shapefile of 1980 census blocks using the
1992 Tiger/Line files. I am able to open the files directly using QGIS,
and I can create shapefiles using the GDAL TIGER driver. However, these
methods do not seem to extract the 1980 block information. Perhaps the
GDAL Tiger driver doesn't pull that info? Is there a way to adapt this
method, or are there any other methods, for getting a 1980 census block
shapefile?

Specifically, I need a 1980 block shapefile to overlay with a more
recent census block shapefile to examine changed boundaries.

I realize this is more directly related to GDAL, but I posted a
question to gdal-dev several months ago and haven't received any
replies.
