Adolf Hitler’s biography, one of the world fiercest criminals (vying very close to Stalin), has been a powerful controversy for more then 60 years since his death. His wild humanistic concepts closely stand by with his obsessive repulsion for Jews. Historians and psychoanalysts have carefully studied the causes of this maniac anti-Semitism.

”Nobody was born anti-Semite”, wrote Sam Izdats in his book called ”The World Greatest Conspiracy”. ”There isn’t any anti-Semite gene. This is an acquired mental reaction”. However, the speculations regarding Hitler’s grandfather identity has not ceased rising strong debates. A recent discovery has made them even stronger. In Bucharest, in Ion Mihalache Boulevard, there is a tomb whose inscription says: ”Adolf Hittler has been resting here since October 26, 1892. Pray for him”. What is more to add is that the tomb is in a Jewish cemetery.

Coincidences and Uncertainties

All they know about Adolf Hittler is that he was a Jewish hat maker that had come to Bucharest from the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, by the end of the 19th century. As he was born in 1932, he would have had the same age as that of the ”official” father of Fuhrer, who was known as Alois Hitler (born in 1837). Alois also comes from Austria, more exactly from the rural area of Waldviertel that can be considered as an interesting coincidence. The Fuhrer’s father official biography (that might have been made by Hitler’s people) provides the following data: Alois Hittler was born in 1837, as the illegitimate son of a 42 year old single woman called Maria Anna Schicklgruber. The new born was baptized in Dellersheim (Strones, his native place did not
have a church) with an unknown paternity. Alois was brought up by Johann Nepomuk Hiedler and was officially adopted when he was already 39, in 1876, taking Hitler as his family name. He changed his name, because that was his tutor’s condition for him to inherit a large farm whose value was more than 5000 florins. Alois was married to his first wife, Anna Glass, an elder woman whose death would occur in 1883.

A troubled marriage

A month later, Alois got married to his second wife, Franziska Matzelberger, who gave birth to two children, a boy and a girl named Alois Jr. and Angela. A year later after their girl’s birth, she died of tuberculosis. Therefore, Alois married for the third time, to Klara Plozl. This last marriage (whilst the future dictator was born), was to start a scandal in
Waldviertel, according to John Tolland’s book named ”Adolf Hitler’s Life”. The reason of this scandal was the fact that Alois’ adoptive father was Klara’s grandfather brother. Any Christian precept would have banned this marriage, ipso facto. But Vatican allowed this marriage. The reason was the fact that Klara was pregnant. They definitely, supposed that Alois was the baby’s father. They din not disregard the possibility that the woman had been pregnant before having met Alois, either. What is certainly known is that Alois put a lot of pressure in having the religious matrimony ceremony institutionalized.
In 1889, Adolf Hitler, the future German dictator and the Holocaust author, was born.

The Fuhrer Blackmailed by his Relatives

The controversy on Alois’ paternity has continued. In his book called ”Adolf Hitler, Europe’s Tragedy”, Davy Winter refers to a family name supposed to be ”Jewish”, that is Hitler and that seemed to have belonged to some important Semite families in Austria of that time. He also compared Hitler’s origins to those of Klara Polzl Hitler that were deeply Jewish. John Tolland, one of the most famous dictator’s biography researchers, gives a more sensible version of Hitler’s grandfather origin. Tolland sustains that Maria Anna Schicklgruber, a servant in a rich family in Graz, got pregnant with her master’s son. The German chancellor madly reacted to the existence of a compromising document that also generated an exhaustive investigation. Fuhrer’s personal lawyer (that was also one of the world war II artisans), Hans Frank, talks about this issue in his memories (named ”Facing the Scaffold”) that were written during the Nurenberg trial. Frank reveals the content of the letter that Hitler showed him in 1936, a letter where two of his step relatives were coarsely blackmailing him. William Patrick Hitler (the son of Alois jr.) and his mother Brigitte threatened Fuhrer that they would make public his real origins.
That was the moment when Hans Frank started his investigation. Thus, the dictator’s grandmother had worked as a cook in the house of Frankerberger, a Jewish living in Granz. After a short relationship with his son, she would beneficiate of alimony for her child, for 14 years.

The Jewish Arian

Walter C. Langer analyses the most striking and ambitious hypothesis in his book, ”The Mind of Hitler”. His book uses the information offered by Gestapo officer Hans Jurger Koehler that confirmed the existence of a Maria Anna Schicklgruber, in Vienna, employed in the house of the baron Rothschild. The hypothetical affair with one of the baron’s sons would have proved that Hitler was not the Arian that he firmly proclaimed.
Nevertheless, the speculations do not stop here. The genealogy specialists sustain that the name of Hitler should belong to a Jewish Pole family that lived in Moravia and Leopoldstadt. One of the Jewish merchants here did not hesitate to assert that he was related to the German politician. The publications Neue Zurcher Zeitung, Lidove Noviny (in Prague), Deutsche Freiheit, Osterreichisches Morgenblatt, and Vorarlberger Wacht
wrote large columns about the investigations regarding Hitler’s uncertain origins. Moreover, Adolf Hitler’s tomb in Bucharest, brings more unclear matters moving from
Fuhrer’s grandfather origins to those of his father. No matter the more phantasmagorical the issue seems to be, the more possible is that Hitler’s father is not Alois, the Jewish origin Austrian, but Adolf Hitler, the Jewish Austrian that emigrated to Romania, by the beginning of the 19th century. However, they must do the historic research, regardless the situation being. Who knows what we are going to find out about it, further on!
