In Texas, individuals who were least likely to be unionists were typically wealthy plantation owners and large landholders, particularly those who relied on slave labor. Their economic interests were deeply tied to the institution of slavery, which they sought to protect. Additionally, many rural farmers and those with strong ties to the Democratic Party during the Civil War era also tended to oppose unionist sentiments, viewing them as a threat to their way of life.
