Yes, there were a few.Because those states upheld (1) constitutional electoral process, (2) respect for federal property, and (3) no slavery in the territories. The seceding states decried the first and second and demanded the third, all in the name of their master white race democracy based on slavery.
There were black slave holders.....one of them owned as many as 60 slaves.
Back then, all you had to have was one drop of negro blood in you to be considered 'black.'
No, you had to be 1/32nd black or more.
