Explanation:

During Reconstruction, most African American families in the South stayed in rural regions. Limited access to urban skilled work, the failure of widespread land redistribution like Sherman's plan, and lack of widespread railroad work opportunities for this group meant the majority took rural labor jobs such as farming or lumbering.

Answer:

They remained in rural areas and worked at jobs such as lumbering or farming.
