Not only to find AWOL members from their new home is a backup archive important, it adds insurance of retention of all your list's posts until the transfer and if you list has valuable content, this insures its content will not be permanently lost if adverse events occur on one of the archives. I have had such adverse events, so I am not writing from a hypothetical position here. One can even keep posting to the old archive all new posts to continue the backup.

May I suggest you do not delete the YG but make it moderated.
That way you can catch any of your members who have not logged in to GIO.
I thought of that too late for one of my transfers.
