Dear Leon Levy, shalom

I was rather surprised to read about possible Mountain Jews in Germany. I
doubt whether there are any of them here. In Israel you will find them, of
course.
If you have a hint why you think that there are "Dagh Chufut" in Germany,
it might be easier to "trace" them.
But you might contact the large Jewish communities like Berlin, Koeln,
Frankfurt or Muenchen and ask whether there are Jews from the Caucasus (or
more precisely Daghestan or Georgia) among their members.
I would be interested to hear about the results of your further
investigations.

Good luck

Best
