For decades, the accepted story of Annie Moore, the first immigrant through Ellis Island on New Year's Day 1892, held that she moved to Texas, ran a hotel, and died in a streetcar accident. It was entirely wrong. Years of research by professional genealogist Megan Smolenyak uncovered the truth. Untapped New York tells the full story.

my latest blog post, which feels kinda like a work in progress, but helped me organize some of my ideas about this somewhat cryptic klezmer's mutual aid society.

I've mentioned him before but this non-Jewish musician/bandleader born in NYC in 1868, John Ellis, went on a tear of acting as a reference for naturalization applications for Jewish and klezmer musicians around 1920🤓 I still don't know what his connection is to them, like was it an orchestra, professional connection or was it just "oh if you need an American reference this guy'll do it for you"

Judge to #TrumpAdministration: "This was an illegal act," Xinis said of DHS Secretary #KristiNoem's attack on #AbregoGarcia's rights, including his #deportation and imprisonment.
"Defendants seized Abrego Garcia without any lawful authority; held him in three separate domestic detention centers without legal basis; failed to present him to any #ImmigrationHistory judge or officer; and forcibly transported him to #ElSalvador." https://www.commondreams.org/news/el-salvador-prison-by-mistake?utm_source=Common+Dreams&utm_campaign=7f5139791d-Weekend+Edition%3A+Sun.+4%2F6%2F25&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-3b949b3e19-600541243

Back when the American Revolution first happened, the colonists at the time saw themselves as English. Obviously they fought a war to become a politically separate entity, but to be American and to be British were to be of the same “people” in a way that to be American and say, German wasn’t.
Of course over time, increased immigration and changing ideas about who gets to “count” as American means that is not really how we view things anymore.I say all that to say this: everything great and cool about America* is a result of its de-Anglicisation.

A book I heartily recommend! Via @kevin_kenny
#histodons: Congratulations to @CianTMcMahon for winning a Choice Outstanding Academic Title Award for his book "The Coffin Ship," a study of how Irish famine emigrants confronted life and death on board ship, building community in the face of great adversity. A fine work of #ImmigrationHistory.
