Ellis Island: The Immigrant Story
It is estimated that approximately 40% of all American citizens can trace at least one of their ancestors to Ellis Island. Using images and many immigrant quotes, Dr. Franz will tell the story of American immigration in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and of the most popular entry point, Ellis Island. Immigrants came from so many countries, and for so many reasons, and they greatly contributed to the work and success of this nation. Speaker: Dr. Jerry Franz
