Well, a lot of my ancestors came here before Ellis Island. Here's something from a thread about one of my great-something grandfathers - "As early as 1727 the Provincial Council of Pennsylvania passed a resolution that the masters of the vessels importing Germans and others from Europe shall be examined whether they have permission to carry these people; that a list be taken of the emigrants, the place from which they came, their occupation and their reason for coming to America. . . . . A writing was drawn up which each emigrant must sign in his own handwriting declaring allegiance and subjection to the king of Great Britain and fidelity to the Proprietary of the Province. These ship lists are published in the "Colonial Records" and "Rupps Immigrants" and the originals are preserved in the Library at Harrisburg.<< home.jtan.com BTW, interesting about not being "white" because you are Slovak. I assume you are exaggerating?
