You can do this with a sumproduct formula

Put in row 1 starting in column F the years 1980. Put in Column E the names
of the months starting in Row 2. Make the months names either all 3
characters (Jan, Feb,MAR) or spelled out completely (change MMM below to
MMMM). You have a mixture off both type month names in your data.

Put the following formula in cell F2

=SumProduct(--(year($A1:$A10000)=F$1),--($E2 =
text($A1:$A10000,"MMM")),$B1:$B10000)
