It's likely that the first time she came was pre-Ellis Island, but we know she went back to Germany for a while. Her family wanted her to stay, but she missed the young man she met in Chicago and came back to marry him. Would someone who was here previously still go through Ellis Island? Lois

Yes, they would..there were a lot that entered thru Ellis Island that were of US citizenship. g
