The US Library of Congress has a new online exhibition called “From Haven to Home – 350 years of Jewish Life in America”, put together from their physical exhibition that is now closed at the Library.
The exhibition features more than two hundred treasures, documents, photographs, and more to help anyone, Jewish or otherwise, learn more about the life of immigrants in America. How they struggled, how they died, and how they survived.
There a fascinating Timeline to help you learn more about the immigration patterns into the United States.
