Illegal Immigration Historical Timeline
This website contains a timeline from the early 1600's to current time about immigration and it's growth. This website is well put together and contains information on different documents, people, and acts involved with U.S. immigration. Although very helpful, i felt that this website could have gone a little more into detail about some of the events that were placed on the timeline.

Spartacus Educational
This website has information about many different things. You can search for immigration (which I did) and they give information about many different things involved with U.S. immigration throughout a long period of time. This site helped when it came to finding people involved with immigration because it gave good facts about their involvement.
PBS Ancestors
This websites contents are straight forward and useful because of the timeline. There are no lengthy sentences, are extra beef to paragraphs that do not matter; it's all helpful information that was a great addition to this site. The site lacks images, so it may be too bland for some people's likings.
PBS American Experience
This site contains a lot of information about the 1800's and the way Chinese were treated. This was extremely helpful because it was very difficult to find legitimate information about the earliest immigrants. It also had visuals which was nice to go along with the reading. For my usage the site didn't lack anything; I was able to get all the information I needed out of the short write-up.
Immigration to the United States
The contents of this website were useful to the making of our website because of it's information about the Gold Rush and how that brought a need for cheap labor. It was useful for what we were looking for. Some other bonuses were the map it gave, and the numbers of increased population during the Gold Rush years. I found no kinks in this site because of the helpful information it gave to me; it had what I was looking for in that specific moment.
Offical Website of Arizona Governor
This is the official website for the Arizona Governor, Janice K. Brewer. It's contents were mostly helpful. Although it gave good links to some of Arizona's bills and laws I feel like more immigration information could be on this site. One of Arizona's top issues is illegal immigrants or aliens, and although there was a brief summary about how Governor Brewer is going to deal with it, there weren't statistics or any images relating to the topic. Not an A+ website for this specific topic, but it still had some good useful information.
My Immigration Story
This website content would definitely be great, but the legitimacy of the website was questionable to an extent. Anyone can submit a fake story about their "treatment" as an immigrant. But I think it was useful because there were so many stories. No one has all the time in world to create fake account after fake account of their "life" as an illegal alien; that would be my best guess anyways. I feel like their could be a better set up to the website, making it look more real. Not just list after list of accounts from people.

Minutemen
This is a very interesting website, but for actual statistics or information it is not helpful. It mainly has news stories and articles on it. Its actual design is also hard to use compared to other websites. Overall I would not try to use this website again.
IRCO
This website has information about getting help for immigrants and refugees to get settled into a new area that they have moved into. It helps them to become “self-sufficient, long-term contributors to the economic vitality of the community” For information it wasn’t the best site possible. But if I was an immigrant going to another country I would use this website for information on how to get started.
Timeline/General Info
This website was a great place to start getting information for a timeline. It also helped me to find possible issues to write about and ideas for organizations to look up. This was the most helpful website that I used for this project.
