What year did Tennessee rejoin the Union the in Civil War?

In 1868, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina and South Carolina were readmitted to the Union. Georgia, however, promptly forced all the black Americans out of their state legislature, which forced the U.S. Government to reinstate martial law. It was once again admitted back into the Union in 1870 along with the final former Confederate states of Texas, Virginia and Mississippi.

Which was the last state to leave the union?

It depends on what you consider secession. North Carolina was the last state who's legislature approved an ordinance of secession (May 20, 1861). However, both Tennessee and Virginia submitted their articles of secession to the voters for approval, and these ratifications occurred later. Virginia voters approved secession on May 23, 1861, while Tennessee voters approved secession on June 8, 1861. So while Tennessee was the last state to "officially" secede, North Carolina was the last state to practically secede (as the voter ratifications were basically just a formality at that point).
