Ok so if I moved a page from folder "white" to folder "black" but the page name remained the same, do I have to do anything more, beyond just linking the new page correctly? How do I tell Google to "ignore" the old pages?

Judy, The Bot will not be able to spider the old site, so effectively it will index the new site and the old URLs will NOT be offered during a search inquiry. This could take a week or two to get sorted.
