March 1st 2009. New York Packet comprising Frank Hendricks, Norm Peterson, Bob Conroy, Jan Christenson, David Jones, Alison Kelly and Frank Woerner. Outside the temperature was falling below zero and NY was about to welcome 12 inches of snow. But inside the music was wonderful and the hospitality typical American.
I too think that this is quite the nice song. I happen to know this bunch of guys and I'm even related to Bob Conroy and theses guys are fabulous and quite the joy to listen too. They always say that you never know what you'll find here on You Tube. I too wish they would made some cd's

I'm absolutely delighted to find a video of this wonderful song. We always think of this song as the best song (almost) never recorded. Come on, Jan, make that CD!

Song name is not correct LOLOL
The name is 'The Ghosts of Ellis Island' copywrite Jan P Christensen 1986 (I think)
I'm just Jan's wife.
Chris, Jan would be glad to send you the lyrics if we can work out a way to do so.

Just came across this after hearing the NPR story of the finding of Annie Moore's pictures - could you post the lyrics or send a copy?
This would be a great song for our song circle here in Portland.
Thx, Chris
