Immigration stories

["Natalie" <nc_coleman@...>]

A few weeks back someone mentioned the book, "Rain of Gold", which told 
the immigration story of the author's grandfather and grandmother.
So - can you share your immigrant ancestor's story?
  - When did they come to the U.S.? How long did their journey take? 
Did they come alone or with a group? Was their move to U.S. meant to be 
temporary or permanent? Where did they settle? What did they think of 
their decision to move from their home in Mexico? What traditions did 
they bring with them? How many generations ago did the immigration take 
place? (Are you the immigrant?)
I hope this is not being too nosey - and thanks for sharing your 
stories.
