Ellis Island was not an immigration center before 1892. So it is better to try the Castle Garden site which was an earlier immigration center. LaVerne

This is for LaVerne. What is the address for the Casttle Garden site. My people where German immigrants just before 1850 and I'm not even sure which port they came into. If they landed in Galveston or Indianola would that have been their first port of call. They were Texas settlers.
