Notable Memorial:
Adolphus Sterne - 1801 - 1852:
Adolphus Sterne, the
eldest son of Emmanuel Sterne and his second wife, Helen, was
born on April 5, 1801, in Cologne, although Alsace is
also claimed as his birthplace. The elder Sterne was an
Orthodox Jew, and Helen Sterne was a Lutheran. Sterne grew up
amid turmoil. At sixteen he was working in a passport office
when he learned that he was going to be conscripted for
military service, forged a passport for himself, and
immigrated to the United States. He landed in New Orleans in
1817, found mercantile employment, and studied law. Wikipedia.
