That's something I wish I would have asked my grandmother. Her name and my grandfather's are on that wall at Ellis Island. I was able to see it a few years back and it really made me appreciate what they went through to come to the US. My grandmother was on the ocean when the Titanic sank. Different ship but she said it frightened everyone when they heard about it. Can you imagine hearing that the "unsinkable" Titanic had hit an iceberg and gone down when you're sailing in the same waters?
