Since today is U.S. Flag Day, there were three states that joined the United States during the war years, causing stars to be added to the union.
1859-1861-- 33 stars when Oregon joined
1861-1863-- 34 stars when Kansas joined
1863-1865-- 35 stars when West Virginia joined
Wikipedia has Nevada joining October 31, 1864
