Who received the "Star" from the Star Spangled Banner Flag?

Need help with some trivia and I'm hoping somebody here knows the answer.

1. Be the selection of 15 stars only visible of 14, there was a
   
   legend that the earliest families of that period of Indiana were
   
   caught in suspicions that the civil war would make them a
   
   haven of traffic, and later headquarters in a most unpopular
   
   duty. Fighting brother versus brother was not allowable claimed the congressman of Indiana, and Louisiana both aware of this latest war being nearly of civil intentions. There was much
   
   interest in having blessings, and sacred events in their favor.
   
   This story was popular that later Lincoln would live in Indiana
   
   and work there as the camp david of the day.
