    Maryland remained in the Union, but slavery remained a reality in Maryland's agricultural areas like the Eastern Shore. President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, which went into effect Jan. 1, 1863, technically applied to the states that had seceded. Maryland did not act to end slavery within its borders until November 1, 1864.
