Immigrants were asked 29 questions
People did not immigrate to Ellis Island- they immigrated to the US- Ellis Island was their point of entry to the US. People came to the US because of religious persecution, financial opportunity, and fleeing conditions of war or famine in their native countries.
Immigrants had to pass the medical examination to pass through Ellis Island. Doctors checked immigrants' hair, faces, necks, and hands for diseases. Eyes were also checked for a blindness disease called trachoma. If immigrants got a letter marked on their clothing, that meant that they needed to have a second, more thorough checkup. If immigrants had diseases or were too sick to work, they were forced to leave the United States. The immigrants who managed to pass thus far were then asked a series of question for interrogation. The inspectors had approximately two minutes with every immigrant to double check information. If the immigrants hesitated, they had to stay at Ellis Island for more questioning. Once the immigrants passed the medical examinations and interrogations and left Ellis Island, they began their new lives as Americans. However, they often met challenges as poor immigrants from other countries. The living conditions for them were mostly very poor. Families lived in tenements, which were small homes and apartments, sometimes even cramming one entire family into one room due to lack of money. The tenements sometimes didn't even have running water or electricity. Immigrants also had to work long hours in factories for little pay. Children would often work as well, selling newspapers or working alongside adults in factories.
Today, the Ellis Island Immigration Station is the Ellis Island Immigration Museum. The original Ellis Island Immigration Station burned down in 1892, and the new Main Building, which opened in 1900, was converted into a museum. The Ellis Island Immigration Museum opened in 1990. On October 15, 1965, Ellis Island became part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument, and became part of the National Register of Historic Places on October 15, 1966. It is governed by the US National Park Service.
