Crossing Paths

"Last night I found out that I have an ancestor who came on all the way to America on a ship when he was just 12 years old. He made a very successful business for himself growing and selling plants in a nursery. We know he came through Ellis Island around 1880..."

"1880??!? That is right when my great great grandmother came from Norway!"

"Maybe they knew each other."

"Maybe your ancestor sold flowers to her great great grandmother!"
