How Many People Escaped?

There is no official figure on how many slaves escaped because they had to live in secrecy and they were always on a constant run from one place to another. There are some unofficial estimates tell us that over 100,000 slaves escaped during the whole history of the underground railroad movement. During the Civil war around 30,000 escaped their captivity.
