Source: The North Carolinian Quarterly Journal of Genealogy & History by William Perry Johnson & Russell E. Bidlack June 1955 Shows the number of North Carolinians born in NC, living in other states. Very interesting figures. I was surprised of the number born in NC that went to Indiana. Then those that went to Georgia, Mississippi and Alabama. This is taken from the U. S. Census of 1850. So in looking for NC relatives, look in these states. Alabama 28, 521 Arkansas 8,772 Florida 3,537 Georgia 37,522 Indiana 33, 175 Kentucky 14, 279 Mississippi 21, 487 South Carolina 6,173
