What roll did the Civil War play in the decrease i

The census for Montgomery Co. Arkansas in 1860 was 3,633 and by 1870 down to 2,984, a loss of 649. Why? I know the obvious - war deaths - but there must be other reasons. I would have thought the population would have increased in the county.

The population of Arkansas in 1870 was 484,471 and increase from 1860 - 435,450.
