Maryland My Maryland

[Craig Hipkins]

Out of curiosity, does anyone know what the percentage of Union/Confederate supporters was in Maryland during the Civil War? I have often heard that the border states ran about 50/50. If this was adopted as the state song in 1939 it would seem that there was a lot more sympathy for the Confederacy at that time by the children and grandchildren of the people that actually lived through the war.
