The risks and uncertainties of free labor didn't deter millions of immigrants from entering the US during the 1840s and 1850s. Almost 4.5 million immigrants arrived between 1840 and 1860, 6 times more than had come during the previous 2 decades. By 1860, foreign born residents made up about 1/8 of the US population, a fraction that held steady well into the 20th century. Nearly ¾ of the immigrants who arrived in the US during this time came from Germany or Ireland.
Ellis Island was "a place where immigrants were <span>processed and evaluated for entry to the United States". Although some were sent back home, a majority of them were let in. </span>
Answer:
William Barret "Buck" Travis (August 1, 1809 – March 6, 1836) was a 19th-century American lawyer and soldier. At the age of 26, he was a lieutenant colonel in the Texas Army. He died at the Battle of the Alamo during the Texas Revolution.
