Local student wins history essay contest

The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution held its annual American history essay contest for fifth- through eighth-graders. The 2015 topic was "A Child's Journey Through Ellis Island" to commemorate the 125th anniversary of Ellis Island as an immigration station.

The Daughters of the American Revolution's objective is to maintain the memory of the men and women who achieved American Independence, to cherish, extend the institutions of the American freedom, to foster true patriotism and love of country and to aid in securing for mankind all the blessings of liberty.
