is it true that Hitler was part Jewish?

Answer 1

"Hitler was not sure who his paternal grandfather was, but it was probably either Johann Georg Hiedler or his brother Johann Nepomuk Hiedler. There were rumours that Hitler was one-quarter Jewish and that his paternal grandmother, Maria Schicklgruber, became pregnant while working as a servant in a Jewish household."

From Wikipedia

Answer 2

Maybe:

In 1876 a new baptismal certificate was issued declaring that Alois's stepfather J.G. Hiedler was in fact his real father. By this time both Maria and J.G. were dead. Why the name change so late in the day nobody really knows, but there is speculation that Alois did it so he could come into an inheritance. At any rate, few researchers today believe J.G. was really Alois's father.

Now for the weird stuff. After the war Hitler's former lawyer, Hans Frank, claimed that Adolf told him in 1930 that one of his relatives was trying to blackmail him by threatening to reveal his alleged Jewish ancestry. Hitler asked Frank to find out the facts. Frank says he determined that at the time Maria Schicklgruber gave birth to Alois, she was working as a household cook in the town of Graz. Her employers were a Jewish family named Frankenberger, who had a 19-year-old son. The son, according to Frank, was Alois's father and Hitler's grandfather--which would make the man who inspired the Holocaust one-quarter Jewish.

Answer 3

Possibly. Hitler's unmarried paternal grandmother was working as a servant in a Jewish household when she became pregnant, and there is a possibility that his grandfather was a member of that family. However, "Jewishness" is transferred via MOTHERS, so Hitler would not have been officially considered Jewish.

Answer 4

I think his mother was either fully Jewish or at least part Jewish. But, yes this is true. Some believe that was the root of his hatred for Jews.

Answer 5

I can't believe that this is being asked seriously. How can someone be part-religious? My mother is a Christian, does that make me part Christian? You are either Jewish or you are not.

Did he have Jewish ancestors? Quite possibly, I honestly have no idea.

Answer 6

His maternal grandfather was the illegitimate child of a woman and her Jewish lover.

Answer 7

his mother was a Jew

Answer 8

I have no idea!
