Fritz Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 A TV documentary using original documentation and interview by surviving relations of the family. The Russians after their march into Austria arrested all relatives they could trace, none of these returned. Kollektivhaft Hitler's favourite nephew, Heinz went missing on the Eastern Front as Nachrichten-Unteroffizier, he had insisted on serving, not wanting any priveleged treatment. It is known that he was brought to Moscows infamouse Bytyrka Prison, where he died after several months of torture and interrogation. A further nephew, William Patrick Hitler, first lived in Berlin, but gave up the job as a bank official, which had had got thanks to the influence of his uncle. He later broke with his uncle and left for America. He joined the US Navy and made propaganda films against his uncle. After the war, he settled in America and started a family, living in seclusion. Interview with Adolf Koppensteiner, Hitler's Gross-Cousin, tells how his parents were discovered and deported by the Russians, he was lucky to escape. He is still followed by fears of repression today. The grave of Hitlers parents, Alois and Clara in Leonding was removed in 2012. A recent photo of the Hitler House in Braunau. There are initiatives for the destruction of the house. So far no action has been taken, the owner has up to now refused to sell. It is thought that steps may be taken by local authorities on a national scale for the confiscation and dispossession of the owner, in order to destroy the house.

Kenny Andrew Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 That's a shame about Heinz, it was not his fault he was related to Hitler, especially when he did not want any priveleged treatment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 The grave in its state till 2012, and presently, the old tree was also removed. There were also numerous pictures of Heinrich (Heinz) Hitler in internet, now only one, which is under copyright for some reason, copyright usually expires after 70 years under German law. A photo of Alois Hitler, Adolf's half-brother. After the war, he settled in Hamburg and changed his name to "Hiller". From 1919 till 1928 he had lived in Hamburg after his return from the British Isles. He later opened a restaurant in Berlin, with financial help from his half brother. He had not been a member of any political organisation and was cleared in the de-nazification processs. After the war, he applied for the name change, as it became impossible to live under the previous name. His application was granted by the Hamburg Police authority after clearance and a "Persil-Schein" from the British Military Authorities. His address post-war was in Hamburg-Fühlsbüttel, Tim-Krogers-Weg 35. He was buried in Hamburg-Ohlsdorf Cemetery under the name of "Hiller". Wiki Information: In 1933, William Patrick Hitler returned to Germany in an attempt to benefit from his uncle's rise to power. His uncle found him a job at the Reichskreditbank in Berlin. Later, William worked at an Opel automobile factory, and later still as a car salesman. Dissatisfied with these jobs, William persisted in asking his uncle for a better job, writing to him with blackmail threats that he would sell embarrassing stories about the family to the newspapers unless his "personal circumstances" improved. In 1938, Adolf asked William to relinquish his British citizenship in exchange for a high-ranking job. Expecting a trap, William fled Nazi Germany; he again tried to blackmail his uncle with threats. This time, William threatened to tell the press that Hitler's alleged paternal grandfather was actually a Jewish merchant. Returning to London he wrote an article for Look magazine titled "Why I Hate my Uncle."[5] William allegedly did return, briefly, to Germany in 1938.[citation needed] It is unknown what exactly William's role in late-1930s Germany was.

Kenny Andrew Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 This explains how Hitler tried to exchange Stalin's son for his nephew Leo Raubal who was captured at Stalingrad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted June 22, 2020 Author Share Posted June 22, 2020 He also wanted an exchange for his nephew, Heinz Hitler. Both perished within a few months at the hands of the Russians, there is no record of what happened to them. Stalin was a tyrant comparable to Gengis Khan or Attila the Hun. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
