Since many Plague sufferers were quarantined in their homes, their families were likely to get contract it also. About 75% - 80 % of those who got the Plague died from it, which was obviously difficult for the family of the victims.
Most families were torn apart by this event. Women who were left widdowed with orphans, were usually a target for money hungry men, who would marry them and usually use up most of their families fortune. Houses and clothes of the victims were burnt in order to do away with the "germs" Also, most families would shut themselves away in their houses so the germs (the bacteria is called 'Yersina Pestus') wouldn't penetrate their houses.
It affected families in a rather durastic way. This is because normally if one person in the family caught the plague then there was a high chance of other family members who were living in their quaters to get it. This is true with both plagues Bubonic and Pnuemonic..
Depopulation and shortage of labor hastened changes already inherent in the rural economy; the substitution of wages for labor services was accelerated, and social stratification became less rigid.
