Could you provide a primary source for this? I've looked all over and I cannot find anything. My guess is that many of them stayed in Indiana and started over because it was a much more prosperous region and most had lost the ties they had to Roswell: many of their husbands, brothers and fathers dead or missing, their family slaves run off or liberated by federal cavalry and their only means of income (the mill) destroyed beyond repair. Cheers.
