PolishOrigins is NOT THE AUTHOR NOR DISTRIBUTOR of this video.

Because the video is no longer available on its original location on the mentioned above website by uploading this video on our PolishOrigins Channel we wanted to share this great documentary with our visitors. Our website members and tour guests often ask us about how their ancestors were able to travel such a long way from their tiny villages in the old country to the New World at the breakthrough of 19th century. This 10-minutes documentary presents it in a very interesting and factual way.
