And sometime we luck out. Even though the majority of the 1890 Census were lost, at times we can find "replacement" documents that just fit the bill.
This morning, happenstance maybe, pure luck maybe... I stumbled upon a copy of a 1892 New York State Census, dated February 16, 1892, a copy from 107 years ago which included the names of Dr. Benjamin and Catherine Taylor.
And here's the copy from microfilm FHL[825693] -
Sources: New York. Erie County. 1892 State Census.
Erie County Courthouse, Buffalo, New York and the Family History Library
My transcription -
Enjoy.
