Answer,

Their family members were often on the same plantation.

Explanation,

Enslaved people worked on a plantation with their family members, so they usually weren't too keen on running away. Instead they found other ways to deal with being enslaved, such as negotiating incentives with the plantation owners or finding a way out of forced labor.

HTH :-)
