Gordon, my maternal grandfather and his mother and sisters arrived in New Bedford in 1901. My father and his mother and siblings arrived in Boston in 1920. My maternal grandmother and her mother were the only ones in my family to enter through Ellis Island. Immigrants who landed in New York prior to 1892 probably came through Castle Garden.
