In a continuation of our systematic search for high proper motion stars in the Digitized Sky Survey, we have completed the analysis of northern sky fields at Galactic latitudes above 25°. With the help of our SUPERBLINK software, a powerful automated blink comparator developed by us, we have identified 1146 stars in the magnitude range 8<r<20 with proper motions 0.500arcsec.yr^–1<µ<2.000arcsec.yr^–1. These include 1080 stars previously listed in Luyten's proper-motion catalogs (the Luyten Half-Second catalog and the New Luyten Two-Tenths catalog), nine stars not previously listed in the Luyten catalogs but reported elsewhere in the literature (including one previously reported by our team), and 57 new objects reported here for the first time. This paper includes a list of positions, proper motions, magnitudes, and finder charts for all the new high proper motion stars. Combined with our previous study of low Galactic latitude fields (see Paper I), our survey now covers over 98% of the northern sky. We conclude that the Luyten catalogs were ≃90% complete in the northern sky for stars with 0".5<µ<2".0 down to magnitude r=19. We discuss the incompleteness of the old Luyten proper-motion survey and estimate completeness limits for our new survey.
