Welcome to the Transportation page
of Italian Immigration 1900-1920
This web page has been created in an attempt
to illustrate how the Italian Immigrants reached Ellis Island in New York
between the years 1900-1920 and how these immigrants ended up in the Fredonia/Dunkirk
area. The following pages will produce information on the reasons
as to why they left their home land, how the Italian Immigrants reached
Ellis Island and the procedure once they reached the Island. Also this
page shall include ways of transportation to and around the Fredonia/Dunkirk
area.
Below are links to the pages dealing
with the individual issues of transportation from Italy to Ellis Island
and eventually to the Dunkirk/Fredonia area.
