TALLAK! immigrant is part family history, part 19th century travelogue, part “How to Manual” to unearth the lives of my ancestors, and yours. My story is your story.Millions came, all intent on improving their days, bettering their children’s futures.They brought their own drama and mystery into their new world, days filled with miracles and heartbreaks, late marriages with babies born too soon, mothers leaving their babies behind in cemeteries, babies losing their mothers at their birth, first cousins and old neighbors falling in love. A sibling left behind, not to be seen for thirty-five years, a vanishing wife, a hair-raising escape from the deadliest fire to date in America.They left their country, family, customs and traditions. They faced unknown languages, unfamiliar city streets and unmapped forest trails, exotic strangers who looked and smelled and dressed oddly, neighbors with rowdy lifestyles.Come with me as we visit our ancestors . . .
