Lately I've been curious to know, as Americans, what percentage of our ancestors came to this country by arriving through New York City? -- Obviously many arrived through a few other places such as Louisiana or Florida. -- I'm of mostly Italian descent, and I've seen my father's surname on Ellis Island. But I think that which country your ancestors came from has something to do with it? Italians are very concentrated throught the Northeast of course, as well as Irish. But does anybody know a percentage of how many Americans can say that all or some of their ancestors arrived through NYC, and not various other ports throughout the country?
Answer:
Over 50% of Americans can trace at least one relative that entered the United States through Ellis Island.
if you want to know about your ancestors you can go to ancestry.com you can find out alot fro them. did you know panco villas name was found in England. i guess we all come from some place. ha ha.
I know for a fact my ancestors came straight from Europe to the South! ( Texas) This is a really interesting question though!
