Immigration
Job #1
Task: The first immigrant landed on Ellis Island on January 1, 1892. When 15-year-old Annie Moore arrived here from Ireland on this day in 1892, she was the first person to enter the United States through Ellis Island. As the boat she was on drew closer to her new home, she must have seen the Statue of Liberty, whose torch rises 305 feet above the waters of the New York Harbor. The statue is on an island next to Ellis Island. source:http://www.americaslibrary.gov/ |
