What 27 acre island is home to important place in American immigration history?
Ellis Island, in New York Bay.
Is Ellis Island or Statue of Liberty more important to the US?
It is an opinion. Honestly, I think Ellis Island is more important and provided more purpose, whereas the Statue of Liberty was a gift from France. Important, yes, but not beneficial. Not that it should be given any less respect, but everyone goes to see Lady Liberty and Ellis Island is not as popular. I've heard they are usually both crowded, but when I went, we were the only ones on the boat going to the island and had the whole museum to ourselves. The Statue of Liberty is beautiful and has a grand history, but Ellis Island's history is also very interesting and so much deeper. If you are deciding which one to go to, try to go to both, but if not, Ellis Island. You take a boat ride just past the Statue of Liberty to get to Ellis Island, so you take pictures on the way there.

Why Ellis Island is important?
Ellis Island is important as people from round the world, their ancestors will have passed through there to get to America. That is what has made America so culturally diverse today. Millions of immigrants passed through Ellis Island. A fire on Ellis Island burnt down records of immigrants passing through, no copies were made of these so tracing ancestors can be a difficulty. (I visited the Ellis Island Museum but I still do not fully understand so don't take all my words! :P)
