"This study will argue that the fear of slave revolts acted as the primary motivation for the migration of many members of the Society of Friends (Quakers) from North Carolina to the Old Northwest, especially Ohio and Indiana, during the early nineteenth century. From around 1800 until the outbreak of the American Civil War approximately 12,000 Quakers living in the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia migrated to Indiana and Ohio. More than half of these migrants came from North Carolina. Historians studying the Quaker "Great Migration" have generally agreed that economics and opposition to slavery played major roles in motivating Southern Quakers to move to the Northwest. However, the fear of slave revolts went beyond economics and general opposition to slavery as an inducement for North Carolina Quakers to migrate."--Abstract, page [ii]
