If you know the location of your grandparents in 1920 and 1910
look them up in the census records. They can be viewed at your
local fhc. If you are in Alaska there may be one in Fairbanks or Anchorage.
You need to chech that out. If not you may be able to get the
films through your library.

In the census it may show the year they came to America.

Keep in mind that what is in Ellis Island has not all been done and indexed yet.
That is an ongoing project. If your grandparents arrived in N.Y. after 1900
you may want to check the soundex index for arrivals in the port of N.Y.

I found my wifes garndparents there when they arrived from Hungary in 1905
on the Kaiser Wilhelm from the port of Bremen Germany.

Good luck.
