I n this book, we’re going to talk about the history of United States immigration after 1870. So, let’s get right to it!

T he United States is known as a “melting pot” because so many individuals from different countries have come to the United States to live. This mixture of various peoples and their cultures has made America strong. Everyone who lives in America today can trace their ancestry to immigrants unless they are directly descended from Native Americans. At times, United States policies have welcomed immigrants and at other times there have been restrictions prohibiting certain types of immigrants.

TIMELINE OF IMMIGRATION TO THE UNITED STATES
There were four distinct waves of immigration to the United States.
1607—The First Wave of Immigration
B eginning in 1607, settlers from England started coming to America. At this time, colonies were established as part of Great Britain. There was a steady flow of families from England as well as Scotland and Wales.

I mmigrants from Germany and from the Netherlands also came during this first wave. The colonies they built ultimately caused tension with the Native American populations along the East Coast.
1820 to 1870—The Second Wave of Immigration
D uring this period of 50 years, over 7 million immigrants came to the United States. A third of these were people from Ireland. The potato famine in Ireland was one of the reasons these impoverished families fled to the United States. Many Irish people were seeking religious freedom and they wanted land that they could call their own.
