 Is there really no truth to the Ellis island thing? My mom's side of the family came over from Russia in like 1904 and their last names end in -dig -dack -deck and -dick and no one knows which, if any, is correct. I doubt each family unit or whatever came with differently spelled immigration papers. Or know if they even had any.
