There were a total of 16 states in 1800. Beside the original 13 colonies which became states, there are Vermont, Kentucky, and Tennessee.
Kentucky never left the Union so there was no need for readmission. Kentucky declared for the Union after Confederate forces occupied Columbus in late 1861. Tennessee left the Union and was readmitted into the Union early on during Reconstruction.
