They were as follows:South Carolina (December 20, 1860)Mississippi (January 9, 1861)Florida (January 10, 1861Alabama (January 11, 1861Georgia (January 19, 1861)Louisiana (January 26, 1861)Texas (February 1, 1861)Virginia (April 17, 1861; ratified by voters May 23, 1861)Arkansas (May 6, 1861)Tennessee (May 7, 1861; ratified by voters June 8, 1861)North Carolina (May 20, 1861)Virginia's Secession was the first following the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861, and Lincoln's call for troops on April 15.
April 1861 - as a response to Lincoln's call for volunteers in the North immediately after the surrender of Fort Sumter. It was one of the last four states to secede.
At the time of the war, the northern states referred to it as the "War of Southern Secession;" at the same time, southern states referred to it as the "War of Northern Agression." More people in the North started referring to it as the Civil War following the Gettysburg Address.
South Carolina seceded in December 1860. Six more states did so in early 1861. And the last four did so in response to Lincoln's call for 75,000 volunteer troops, following the Confederate bombardment of Fort Sumter in April 1861.
Seven states declared their secession before Lincoln took office on March 4, 1861: # South Carolina (December 20, 1860) # Mississippi (January 9, 1861) # Florida (January 10, 1861) # Alabama (January 11, 1861) # Georgia (January 19, 1861) # Louisiana (January 26, 1861) # Texas (February 1, 1861) After the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861, and Lincoln's subsequent call for troops on April 15, four more states declared their secession: # Virginia (April 17, 1861; ratified by voters May 23, 1861) # Arkansas (May 6, 1861) # Tennessee (May 7, 1861; ratified by voters June 8, 1861) # North Carolina (May 20, 1861)

The Confederacy admitted them, but the two pro-Confederate state governments soon went into exile and never controlled the states which they claimed to represent[citation needed]: 1. Missouri did not secede[citation needed] but a rump group proclaimed secession (October 31, 1861). 2. Kentucky did not secede[citation needed] but a rump, unelected group proclaimed secession (November 20, 1861). Although the slave states of Maryland and Delaware did not secede, many citizens from those states joined the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia.
Secession.
Following Abraham Lincoln's election as President of the United States in 1860, seven states seceded from the Union in the months leading up to his inauguration in March 1861. These states were South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas. They formed the Confederate States of America and triggered the American Civil War.
In 1861, four Southern states seceded from the Union. These were:Virginia, April 17th;Tennessee, May 7th;Arkansas, May 9th; andNorth Carolina, May 20th.
No. Only secession required action on the part of state's legislators. Unless articles of secession were voted by a particular state, that state would automatically remain part of the Union. And only in the southern states was there sufficient popular sentiment, economic motivation, and legislative willingness to actually secede from the U.S.
