Did people travel over the Atlantic Ocean or Ellis Island to get to the US from Ireland?
The Immigration Station on Ellis Island, in New York Harbor, was their destination. So no, they did not travel over Ellis Island. That's where they were going. The body of water that lies between Ireland and New York is the Atlantic Ocean, so that's what they traveled over.

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.
Where did the immigrants arived and what where they given there?
They came into NYC through Ellis island. It was very well organized at Ellis with immigration officers checking people in, doctors giving physicals, providing beds in dorm rooms, a cafeteria to feed them, and when all was done they left the island going to NYC. They did all of this without the advantage of computers or technology and it makes me wonder why we can't do the same thing with our technology a 100 years later.
