Most Texans fought with the Confederacy.
The stance of Texans on slavery was divided. Before the Civil War, some Texans were in favor of slavery while others were against it. Slavery was eventually abolished in Texas following the end of the Civil War in 1865.
Mexico abolished slavery
Yes, his loyalty was to the Union while they supported the Confederacy.
Because the Texans were apart of the Spanish. The Spanish owned Texas. :D
At first, Texans didn't really like him, but by the end of the civil war, us Texans loved good ole Honest Abe. THERE WERE NO TEXANS BACK THEN! CORRECTION: There most certainly were Texans back then!!!! Texas was the 7th of the 11 states to secede from the Union. Texans did not like Lincoln. He opposed slavery, while Texans (along with many other southern states) felt slavery was necessary to sustain their economy, which depended heavily on farming and ranching. When Lincoln won the election, he received ZERO votes from Texas. His name was not even on the ballot.
There were a few reasons why Texans opposed Edmund J. Davis. One reason was that he was against the confederacy. Many also blamed him for the poor economy of Texas.
In the 1820s, most residents of Texas were Mexican nationals. I presume they supported the government of Mexico (although there were Mexicans who fought with the Americans at Alamo). I suspect that most of the Americans living in Texas in the 1820s supported slavery and independence (slavery was illegal in Mexico).
they sent supplies for the people in the war
To oust the Texans, but if he caught them, treat them as pirates and kill them all.
Many Texans owned slaves due to the reliance on slave labor for agriculture, particularly in cotton production. Slavery was economically beneficial to many Texans as it allowed for the expansion and profit of large plantations. Additionally, the institution of slavery was deeply ingrained in the social and cultural fabric of the southern states, including Texas.
