What becomes of patsy

I read somewhere that Patsy did survive through the civil war but managed to leave Epp's plantation not long after.




ETA...This is the actual article I read, which states that she did leave with the Union Army.

"She did survive until at least 1863, ten years after Solomon was freed. In a letter printed in a New York state newspaper, the Mexico Independent, on June 18, 1863, Capt. Henry C. Devendorf, a Union officer from upstate New York, told how he encountered a slave named Bob near Bayou Boeuf. Bob was one of Epps' slaves, and the New York soldiers had a chance to converse with him, and confirmed that Epps was his master, and that he had known Northup. "Patsy," wrote Devendorf in the letter (written in May 1863), "went away with our army last week, so she is at last far from the caprices of her jealous mistress."
