If you want to gain first hand knowledge and live the experience of an immigrant arriving at Ellis Island, I have found two valuable sites.  The first is a teacher's aid site set up on the Web for classroom usage.  The second is at the History Channel Website and based upon a special program that the History Channel developed and aired.  Visit these sites and pass through time.  Experience Ellis Island through the eyes of an immigrant as your ancestor's did!
