From the supplier: Large numbers of white former residents of Kentucky, Arkansas and Tennessee migrated to Northern cities from World War II to 1970. White southern migration to Chicago, IL, romanticized the concept of "home," often motivating return to the South when the emotional burdens of separation became too intense. Migrants who stayed North often felt torn between two worlds, desiring to be buried in the South.
