Abandoned?[edit]

"(...) but the area was later abandoned. The town was refounded some time in the Fourth Era when a lumbermill was built on the banks of the river."

Is there any source confirming this? The town might as well have been slowly depopulated until it became a small village, instead of being abandoned and refounded. Unless I'm missing some bit of dialogue from Skyrim. --Vordur Steel-Hammer (TINV1K) 14:59, 21 May 2015 (GMT)

"Gerdur's family first settled here as wood cutters a few generations ago." - Alvor
"It's my mill. Some folks think it's my town too, but it ain't. The Jarl in Whiterun owns the land and the town. I just pay the taxes." -Gerdur
