Great story OMR, it reminds me of the stories my grandfather used to tell me.
My Mom's father immigrated to Canada from the Ukraine and met my grandmother here, I don't know alot about him or his immigration because he divorced my grandma before I was born.
My Dad immigrated here from Italy when he was 3, they like to say my uncle was born on the boat on the way over, but I don't think that true. My grandfather used to tell me that after the war there wasn't much left of Sicily, there were no jobs and the mafia was running people out of the country, he basically just said that because of the war it was no longer safe for him in Italy and so they came to Toronto by way of New York.
At my grandfathers funeral, there were people that had been on the boat with him there to pay their respect.
But thats as much as I know, my dad has never returned to Italy and my grandparents had only gone back once, its something that we don't talk much about.

My fathers family came from germany about 300 years ago, they're mentioned in a
book called Mandingo, spoken of as slave traders, during the civil war they ran cotton to the north.
