I think it was Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri, all who got pressured by Washington to stay in the Union.

Maryland was pretty much split in two, there were people who fought for the confederacy and the union in my state. I was kind of disappointed after finding out as a kid that "all us Marylanders didn't fight for the union". Doesn't matter much to me now, knowing my ancestors hadn't even gotten out of Germany at the time.
