Fort Sumter is located in Charleston harbor in South Carolina. in 1861 South Carolina joined the Confederate States of America,and in so doing her star was now one of seven that was now repersented by the flag of their new nation,officaly known as the First National Confederate flag, its true nick name is the Stars and Bars. This flag is not ''the'' Fort Sumter flag. the use of the ''Stars and Bars'' at Fort Sumter simply shows that Ft. Sumter at that time after april 12 1861 was now under the joint control of the state of South Carolina and the Confederate government then sitting at Montgomery, Alabama.

When did someone change the confederate flag to the US flag like the 'stars and bars'?

When the Confederate States was formed, a committee was formed and a design was chosen which featured seven stars in a blue union with three bars--two of red between a white one. This was known as the Stars and Bars. In the heat and dust of battle, the Stars and Bars looked too much like the Union's Stars and Stripes and the Confederate Congress adopted a new flag with a union featuring the square battle flag of the Army of northern Virginia and a white field. This white field looked too much like a flag of surrender so a new flag was designed which added a red bar to the white field.
