Did Texas free slaves after the emancipation Proclamation?

Yes, Texas did free its enslaved people after the Emancipation Proclamation, which was issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863. However, the proclamation only applied to the states in rebellion, and it wasn't effectively enforced in Texas until Union troops arrived. The official announcement of emancipation in Texas came on June 19, 1865, when Union General Gordon Granger issued General Order No. 3, leading to the celebration of Juneteenth as a significant date in American history.

Does a 17-year-old who moved in with his mother in Texas after being kicked out of his custodial father's house have to live with his mother until he is 18.?

I am not sure about Texas law but I know that in Michigan a 17 year old can move out without consent of their parents. Try googling "emancipation Texas" to see what pops up. If a 17 year old is not allowed to move out without consent of parents in Texas, emancipation is always an option. There are forms that can be found online and if you fill them out and send them in you will get a court date. If you can prove that you can take care of yourself the court will grant you legal custody of yourself even under the age of 18.AnswerI am not sure about Texas law but I know that in Michigan a 17 year old can move out without consent of their parents.
