The Year Ahead – September 12

In the January/February 2024 issue of Family Tree Magazine, they have introduced The Year Ahead, 366 genealogy tips will make 2024 your best research year yet by Lisa A Alzo. Lisa mapped out a day-by-day research plan.

September 12 – Angel Island was the West Coast’s equivalent of Ellis Island, processing hundreds of thousands of immigrants. Learn about its history and records www.aiisf.org.

I have to admit, this is the first I have heard of this place. Perhaps because they dealt with a lot of Asian immigrants (not all) and I don’t have any Asian immigrants. This immigration port operated between 1910 and 1940 and they did not only deal with Asian Immigrants, thus if you can’t find the port of entry for your immigrant, this port is worth checking out.
