Re: Ellis Island Web Site
I have seen similar comments about problems with access on the Association of Professional Genealogists and Genealogical Speakers Guild e-mail list, so the people on this list who are having trouble getting in are not alone. I know from discussions in the genealogical field that anyone who had ancestors who came through Ellis Island is very excited about this. Wait a few months!

I want to thank everyone that responded to my plea about accessing this
site. I did finally get on, but experienced quite a few "knock outs" as I
traversed through the searches, etc. With perseverance and a quick finger
on the "reload" button, I was able to locate my grandmother's and
great-grandmother's arrivals and even gleaned some info we didn't have -
such as the exact date of arrival and the name (and a picture) of the ship.
This is a great site, but I think I'll wait until the newness wears off
before attempting my grandfather's info.
