Hope she and her family enjoy the visit to Ellis Island. My youngest son and I went there in the 90’s. It was where my father, his two brothers and my grandparents were processed when they came to this country from Holland in 1912.

My grandpop came from Ireland (Northern Ireland, now) in 1920, and several of his siblings earlier. My parents and brother and cousins have been there, but I haven’t been Up North since the early 80s, before Ellis Island was opened to the public.
