I want to write an article about Alexander Zuntz, he was born May 15, 1742, in Germany and came to the USA in 1779, where he died Oct. 15, 1819 in New York. He was Jewish immigrant and Hessian soldier that fought for the British crown. Alexander Zunzt served for the Hessian general staff as commisionary and as president for the Jewish rump congregation.
