An African American who moved to Kansas in the 1860s was likely part of the broader migration known as the "Exoduster Movement." This movement involved formerly enslaved individuals seeking better opportunities and freedom in the West after the Civil War. Kansas was seen as a land of promise, where they could establish communities and escape the oppressive conditions of the South. Many settled in towns like Nicodemus, which became a symbol of Black self-determination during that era.
