The view from the ferry leaving Liberty Island for Ellis Island...majestic...what that view would be like after months on a boat, giving up all you had to come to this new country and finally arriving and seeing this! What we take for granted now...
One whipped out little man!
We are now on Ellis Island. These are examples of what luggage was brought with them & some very touching pictures of actual people/families that came here at one time.
This is Taft standing in the middle of the main hall people would sit for hours (at times days) for their names to be documented & recieve the papers & go ahead to enter the United States.
