Question

So, I have to interview an African-American family or person for my history project, but I don't know one well enough to call and interview one. I was wondering if you guys could help me answer these questions.
1. What year did your immigrant family members move to the United States? (Old immigrants: before 1880. New immigrants: 1880-1920)
2. Where were your immigrant family members born (Old immigrants: a country in northern or western Europe . New immigrants: a country in southern or eastern Europe)

Answer 1

3. To what religion did your family members belong? (Old immigrants: a type of Protestant religion. New immigrants: Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Jewish) * The Irish are the exception because they came to America with the Old immigrants, but they were Roman Catholic.
4. What was your immigrant family member’s occupation? (Old immigrants: literate, skilled, owned businesses and farms. New immigrants: illiterate, unskilled worked in factories)
5. Where did your immigrant family members live when they came to the United States? (Old immigrant: city or country. New immigrant: city)
6. Ask your family member if they know any immigrant stories about their immigrant ancestor that you could use in your essay.
