Americans with lived experience of the Ellis Island immigrants are active seniors, deeply concerned about the loss of heritage, family connections, and legacy building. A Generational View of Ancestry builds on a decade of ancestry research, writing, and speaking to explore intergenerational communication from the perspective of Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X and Boomers.
