I found a village and built 4 kilometers of track to transport a couple of villagers to a new village I am constructing. When I finaly got back to the old village there were no people left in the village.
Will people eventually come back to a village or do I have to search for another village?
Are you on Hard? Because if you are, zombies may have broken down the doors and turned them into zombies.
A way you can repopulate is to cure some Zombie Villagers and herd them back to the village.
The village has a high wall around it so the villagers can't wander too far. There is a lot of space between the houses and the wall with low hills they can hide behind.
Question: Are villager zombies currently curable, or do we have to wait for the next update? Wiki says one thing, and my friend that introduced me to Minecraft says another.

Zombies probably killed them all, If you play on the recent snapshots you can just find villager zombies near your house and cure them, and you wont have to do all the minecart work so its alot easier than finding another village

They are curable, Etho has done it, BdoubleO has done it, and im sure many others have. It does take a few minutes for them to transform back into villagers, though.

Thanks for the reply. So in the video where Etho has done it, was that in a pre-release version, or the current version?

When I leave the village for several days then come back there is nobody in the village in any of the houses or anywhere else. If I leave and come back later in the day there is still nobody around then suddently people start appearing in the village.
When transporting villagers they will suddenly disapear from the minecart but reapear when you destroy the minecart at the new location. I transported two people and when I destroyed the minecarts one peson was missing and other person ended up in the new vilage. I put the minecarts back on the track and the missing vilager appeared later in the day in the minecart.

Sounds like your game is just lagging and things aren't loading well. Try hitting the escape key and then waiting a few seconds before returning to game. See if they show up faster for you. I know currently I have an issue where if I have cows in minecarts and I load my world or unload the chunks then reload them the cows are frozen and don't look like they are in the minecart, but they really are.

Villagers don't go farther than a certain distance from their village.

But yeah, even if you're not playing the snapshot zombies can kill villagers.

Current version is 1.3.2. Villager zombies (or are they zombie villagers?) are only in the 1.4 snapshots (12w37a, etc.)

You think magic isn't real? Consider this: for every person, there is a sentence -- a series of words -- which has the power to destroy them.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
