But when Gwen realizes that Pringle is the daughter of a mine owner (Gwen's brother was killed in a mining accident), she instantly turns her back on Pringle, even as her husband and (surviving) brother show more compassion. The epilogue states that Pringle never saw the Pritchards again.

Lidia had given up everything to elope with Jerzy because he was the love of her life, had one small child, and was pregnant again. After all that, she ends up a widow and single mother. She's so devastated that she decides to give up on America altogether and go home to Poland.

* The assault on the Lenape village that leads to Cate and Thomas being "rescued". The two of them are dragged away in tears from the people they've come to love as family, and their last sight of the village is as it goes up in flames. The epilogue reveals that, despite their best efforts, Cate and Thomas were never able to discover the fate of the family. They do discover the fate of another assimilated captive, a boy named John McCloud who is, in all probability, Cate's love interest Snow Hunter (he had once told Cate that he was also born English and his birth name was John), but it's bad news; John was killed around the same time as the attack on the village. The epilogue states that Cate never married, and the final scene implies that this is because her heart was always with Snow Hunter.
