ELLIS ISLAND 1892-1957
The growing number of immigrants to America in the late 1800s made the system of individual states regulating immigration unworkable. So the federal government set up a new immigration centre at Ellis Island, a small island in New York Harbor. From 1892 to 1954, over twelve million immigrants entered the United States through the portal of Ellis Island.
