Before the cotton gin, there was not much profit to be had out of cotton. There was too much time involved in making it a marketable product. After the gin, cottons potential was realized, the plantations were booming. Even with the gin, the harvesting of cotton was still very labor intensive.

If i couldn't free all the slaves just to keep USA together, i would do it. And if i could free some, and not free some others, i would do it. Just fot the Union". (USA)
All the women who did this had different reasons, depending on their situation. Some examples of reasons: 1) Women wanted to help out the cause. They wanted to show their support for their side, whether it was the North or the South. 2) Women wanted equal rights and some wanted to prove that they were just as capable as men to fight in the war. 3) They wanted to go in in place of a loved male family member, like in the Disney movie Mulan.
First, understand that some Northern States (Maryland) were slave states. Businesses in the North transported slaves to the US, and sold them in the South (slave ships).
