The total number of Negroes reported as born in the south (that part of the country lying south of the southern boundaries of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and Kansas) was 9.600,943. Of these, 7,751,361, or 80.7 per cent, were living in their native states in 1920; 1,068.788, or 11.1 per cent, were living in other southern states; and 780,704, or 8.1 per cent, were living in the north or west. The total number of Negroes reported as born in the north or west was 741,791, of whom 537,131, or 72.4 per cent, were living in their native states in 1920; 157,437, or 21.2 per cent, were living in other northern or western states; and 47,223. or 6.4 per cent. living in were the south. Thus the proportion of southern-born Negroes who migrated to the north or west, 8.1 per cent, was only about one-fourth larger then the proportion of the Negroes who were born in the north or west and migrated to the south, 6.4 per cent.

The number of Negroes born in the south and living in the north or west less the number born in the north or west and living in the south was 733 571. These may be termed the survivors of the net migration of Negroes

from the south to the north and west. The number of southern-born Negroes living in the north and west increased from 440,534 in 1910 to 780,794 in 1920, forming 40.9 per cent of the total Negro population of the north and west in the earlier year and 50.3 per cent in the later.

Although migration to the north and west has not taken place among the far southern Negroes to the same extent, relatively to their total numbers, as among the Negroes in the northern part of the south, there was nevertheless a pronounced increase in such migration from the far south in the decade 19101920. For example: The Negroes who were born in South Carolina and had migrated from that state to Pennsylvania increased from 2,113 in 1910 to 11,624 in 1920; those from Georgia to Pennsylvania increased from 1,578 to 16,196; those from Florida to Pennsylvania, from 393 to 5,370: those from Alabama to Ohio, from 781 to 17,588; those from Mississippi to Illinois, from 4,612 to 19.485; those from Louisiana to Illinois. from 1.609 to 8.078; and those from Texas to Missouri, from 1.907 to 4.344.

widowed, 273,304 were divorced, and
the remaining 50,751 the marital condition
was not reported. The difference of 530,333
between the numbers of married men and of
married women was due principally to the
presence in the United States of many foreign-
born married men who had left their wives
in the countries of their former residence.

The census figures give no indication of the total number of persons who have been divorced, but show merely the number of divorced persons who had not remarried at the time the census was taken.
