To stop people leaving controlled lands? Other than they having home, fields, etc. at there, or with using force? Also, I don't think that they teached that the edge starts right after the lord's lands. The people were not that stupid. 
And to where the people would have gone? I mean, there were lords everywhere, if you mean escaping them. To some never never land? Also, based on the "Great migration", some people did actually migrate, but not because their lord forgot to warn about the edge.

Those migrations occured over land, not over seas and all within the Roman Empire.
What's your "Earth is flat" theory? Do you really think anyone with half an education or a brain for that matter even in those times could look up and see the round shape of the sun and moon and not consider anything else for thousands of years and not share this light bulb of an idea with anyone else?
