    While mine came from Germany (at least the ones bearing the family
    name) Ellis Island was just another random island that didn't have any particular significance (e.g. in the very early 18th century). And
    while those same ancestors didn't come on the Mayflower one of them
    married a lady (and indirectly made me) whose ancestors DID.

    Thus I am a Canadian whose daughters could qualify for Daughters of
    the American Revolution. One of whom did an exchange year in Baltimore
    MD art school (Maryland Institute College of Art) whose classmates
    over drinks one night were talking about the American Revolution and
    the DAR when she surprised them by saying that SHE (a non-American)
    could qualify for DAR membership.

    In fact the nephew of my oldest forebear I've been able to track
    founded this place in upstate NY: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craver_Farmstead

    How this makes me superior to anybody else is completely beyond me.
    And so far as I know, neither he nor anybody else that we know of ever
    came from Europe without their paperwork in order.

    The Brandon Administration counted any people attempting to illegally
    enter the U.S. at the border who failed in their attempt to cross the
    border as "deportations", hence the inflated and dubious claim that
    these wannabe invaders were "deported."
