The emmigrants came from all over the world. A mass movement came from Ireland. They were forced out. I sometimes compare the Mexican movement of that to the Irish. Norwegians came and they did it the legal way too. Irish did it the legal way and suffered more than any other nationality, in the world. Italy, Spain, Mexico, Austrailia, Germany, Holland, Denmark, Africa, Austria, Russia, China, Japan, India, Isreal, Palistine, Iran, Greece, Eygypt, and the list goes on and on. This Great United States of America is built upon emmigrants. But they had great Respect and were humble and thankful to be on America Soil. What is happening that the emmigrants today, are angry and demanding ?? They hate us Americans and are degrading. then wipe their feet on our backs, thinking they will take over. Not good anymore.

S. immigration equipment is an old monstrosity of a paperwork that places that's priorities in assisting multinational companies receive eco-friendly playing cards for prime sales jobs incredibly then assisting authentic those who elect to go back right here and stay the dream. that's why Bush, McCain, Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and one yet another flesh presser with their head halfway instantly were pushing for a sparkling immigration bill that extremely fixes this corrupt and damaged equipment.

Immigration quotas didn't come into play until 1924. So everyone that came to the US b-4 that time frame simply signed their name on a ledger at Ellis Island and that made them legal. No process, no background check, no fingerprints and no cost.

From memory-- I think during that timeframe, largest immigrant population came from: Germany, Italy, Ireland (not necessarily in that order)

My ancestors came from Russia during that time, legally, through Ellis Island.

They came from all over and they came LEGALLY most through Ellis Island.
They had to have financial resources, medical checks, and LEGAL documentation or else they were sent back and many were!
So, it's not fair to let people just slip over the border and ignore the facts they have no money and have many diseases and are drain on our economy!!!
The illegal aliens are ruining our society!
Anyone who can't see that is UN-AMERICAN!

Where ever they came from, the first thing they did was got the papers to be here by our laws. The min. they got here also they called themselves Americans, and learned english.
