But the journey was not yet over. Before they could be
admitted to the United States, immigrants had to pass
through Ellis Island, which became the nation's chief
immigrant processing center in 1892. There they would
be questioned and examined. Those who could not
pass all the exams would be detained; some would be
sent back to Europe. And so their arrival in America
was filled with great anxiety. Among the immigrants,
Ellis Island was known as "Heartbreak Island."
O Ellis Island was known as "Heartbreak Island
because so many had heart and medical problems
while there.
Ellis Island was an important step on the way to
American citizenship. Not everyone made it through
the examinations.
In 1892, Ellis Island became the nation's immigrant
processing center. Lots of questions and exams
were given there.

of anxiety and were sent to live on Ellis Island.
