A photo mural on a wall depicting the immigrants of the day at Ellis Island
Between 1905 and 1914, an average of one million immigrants per year arrived in the United States.
Immigration officials reviewed about 5,000 immigrants per day during peak times at Ellis Island.
Two-thirds of those individuals emigrated from eastern, southern and central Europe.
Today, over 100 million Americans—about one-third of the population—can trace their ancestry
to the immigrants who first arrived in America at Ellis Island before dispersing to points all over the country
I think immigration strengthens and enriches the fabric of society :0)
