What slaves did not gain freedom under the proclamation?

Additionally, the proclamation did not apply to states that were not in rebellion against the United States.
Did the emancipation proclamation immediately free all the slaves?
No the emancipation proclamation did not free all slaves immediately. instead it freed very few people because the emancipation proclamation did not apply to slaves in the border states who were fighting for the union states. it also did not act upon the slaves in the south that were already under union control.
Where did the Emancipation Proclamation not free people?
The Emancipation Proclamation specifically only freed slaves in those states "the people whereof shall be in rebellion against the United States". In other words, it did NOT free slaves in the four slave states which had not seceded (Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland and Delaware), nor in Tennessee (which was occupied and effectively controlled by Union troops and therefore not "in rebellion"), nor in that portion of Virginia which would become West Virginia (which had seceded from Virginia when Virginia seceded from the Union). It also was not considered to apply to the southern part of Louisiana, which was under Union control at the time.Missouri was a complicated case; a portion of the government had voted to secede, but it wasn't the portion that actually had the power to do so, so it was considered by the Union to be a Union state and by the Confederacy to be a Confederate state with a government-in-exile. In any event, the Proclamation was held not to apply to Missouri.Slavery did not officially end in these areas until either the states themselves ended it, or until 1865, when the 13th amendment which abolished slavery in the entire US was ratified.Also, in practice, the only immediate effect of the Emancipation Proclamation was that slaves in captured by Union troops became free citizens rather than "contraband" (which is what they had been legally considered up to that point), since the portions of the Confederacy which were actually under Confederate control did not recognize the legality of the Emancipation Proclamation.
