January 1, 1863 but the Emancipation Proclamation actually didn't free ANY slaves. If you read it carefully it clearly states;
"That on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repress such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they may make for their actual freedom."
The key here being the part about people being in rebblion against the United States. Lincoln was specifically refering to the Confederate States of America, where he has no authority. It specifically did not end slavery in any territory held under Union control, even in the south, New Orleans for example remained legally a legal slave holding area. No, slavery ended in the US officially on December 6, 1865 when the 13th Amendment to the US Constitution was ratified.
