Once upon a time, an Irish family of a mother
and father, their kids Margaret Rose,
Maureen, Bridget, and Joseph moved to New
York in search of a better life.


The Nolan family had to travel to America in a
very crowded ship filled with many other
immigrants. They traveled aboard for two weeks.
On the last night, Margaret could not fall asleep.
She snuck out, and the only other person on the
deck points out the New York Harbor to her.
Margaret Rose runs back to the bunk and
anxiously tells her family that they have arrived
to New York.



After a very long wait, the family finally unloads
from the ship. Medical examiners are on the island
checking everyone for illnesses. If they happen to be
sick, they are not allowed into America. At last, it
was their turn to be examined. Everyone passed the
examination, but Joseph. What were they going to
do? They came all this way only to find out that they
are not welcomed?


Michael, the father, decides to head back to
Ireland with Joseph until he was well enough
to return. This broke the Nolan family's
hearts. Now Margaret Rose, Bridget,
Maureen, and their mother were to live on
their own in New York with Michael's brother,
Patrick, his wife Elsa, and their two
daughters Trudy and Hildegarde, and their
son, Friedrich.

When the girls arrived to uncle Patrick's house,
no one was happy to see them besides Patrick.
Trudy, Hildegarde, and Elsa were not excited
for them to be staying there. The situation got
worse the longer they stayed there. The girls
knew they had to get out soon. The next day,
Margaret Rose looked for a job in the city. She
found one making paper flowers, and she was
allowed to bring her work home.

This was the final straw for Elsa and
the girls when they saw that Margaret
Rose had brought work into their home.
They found it embarrassing, that they
had "sweatshop workers" staying with
them. Margaret wants to go back to
Ireland.



Margaret Rose and Maureen refuse to go back
to Ireland. Worn out and beaten down,
Margaret lets them stay; only if they promise
to return back to uncle Patrick's house. Her
and Bridget set sail for Ireland. Margaret Rose
and Maureen break their promise to their
mother, and try to find a place to live.
