We will never know. Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation didn't end
slavery. He made exceptions. He even publicly stated that blacks
should not have the full citizenship rights of whites.

The Emancipation Proclamation ONLY applied to the confederate states.
There were still slaves in Southern Maryland, until the Maryland
legislature freed them.
Since there was not really a war there, you see the same kind of
integration I was referring to. Until the white flight of the 60s, the
counties in southern maryland had plenty of black owned farms, right
next to white owned farms and they people got along just fine. It
wasn't until the "white flight" people from DC moved there that they
had problems.
