well of course... many

There was many areas of the Confederate States which were very anti-secession. The areas which were too hilly and/or mountainous to have large farms (plantations) saw no reason to leave the Union, especially over an issue they felt wasn't important to them: Slavery. The pro-Union areas included western Virginia which became the state of West Virginia in 1863. The Confederate areas which had little or no slavery included eastern Tennessee, western North Carolina, and northern Alabama. Eastern Tennessee was so anti-secession they refused to fight for the south and ignored the Confederate draft. A number of residents of eastern Tennessee were hung by confederates due to their fierce opposition. The only southern senator who remained loyal to the Union, Andrew Johnson was from eastern Tennessee. Northern Alabama in the area of Huntsville, were so anti-secession, they briefly considered "seceding" from the Secessionists. Areas of Mississippi including Jones County were so against the war that Confederate tax collectors/soldiers looking for draft dodgers were too afraid to enter these areas. In Texas, there was a large community of German immigrants who didn't have slaves. They were very anti-secession and eventually 50 German Texans were hung for "treasonous" activities. The governor of Texas at the time of their secession Sam Houston was very anti-secession causing his removal in 1862. Every Confederate state except South Carolina had companies of soldiers,using the name of their state in their designations, fighting for the Union. For example, Sherman's immediate security during his march through Georgia were a company of Alabama cavalry. Lincoln desperately wanted to have Union soldiers gain control of eastern Tennessee because he believed they would leave Tennessee and form a seperate state which would rejoin the Union. Some of the so-called Border states such as Virginia voted against secession initially. They only voted to secede after Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers to bring the seceded states back into the union. Some cities which depended on commerce with the north such as New Orleans and Vicksberg were against secession initially. Even when Mississippi voted to secede , Vicksburg still voted overwhelming against secession.When it appeared the South wasn't going to gain it's independence, Georgia's governor Joseph Brown, who throughout the war was reluctant to cooperate with the Confederate government in Richmond, considered taking his state out of the war and making a separate peace.
