Morphology
1830s = 1830 (transparent) = 1830 + s
The suffix 's' is transparently added to the year '1830' to indicate the decade.
Etymology
The word 1830s names the 'decade' of ten years that starts in 1830. The final s turns the number into a group of years, like 1990s or 2000s, so 1830s means the years from 1830 through 1839.
