Hitler had a rather twisted family tree, which some say was one of the reasons he hated Jews.
To quote the great Cecil Adams (citation below):
Hitler's father was illegitimate and to this day there is some question about who his grandfather was. Throughout his career he was dogged by rumors about his pedigree, some of them circulated by his fellow Nazis. In 1933 the London Daily Mirror published a picture of a gravestone in a Jewish cemetery in Bucharest inscribed with some Hebrew characters and the name Adolf Hitler. It's now known the Bucharest Hitler could not have been grandfather to our Adolf, but Hitler was sufficiently worried about the whole business that, according to the historian John Toland, he had the Nazi law defining Jewishness written to exclude Jesus Christ and himself.
Here's what we know: Hitler's paternal grandmother, Maria Schicklgruber, gave birth to Alois, Hitler's father, in 1837. She was 42 and unmarried at the time and apparently never revealed the father's identity. Five years later she married Johann Georg Hiedler or Hitler (spelling was a bit casual in those days). But Alois kept the surname Schicklgruber until he was 39 years old.
Read the rest at the citation, its fascinating.

Unfortunately I don't think this will be a good way to get information, because for a formal research paper you're going to have to cite all of your sources, and I'm not sure "Yahoo Answers" will be accepted. I'd say go to some reliable websites, not wikipedia or any other kind of encyclopedia online, because they're also tricky to cite. Go to Google and type in Hitler and find some good websites.

Ah Hitler.Well,he tried to over take Europe,founded the Natzie regime,and got very exited when he made a speach.
Some say he was the anit-christ cause he was so evil.He tried/married his sister-in-law then when it all came down commited suicide in an underground bunker.
I don't spend alot of time on this charactor.He was very unpleasant!Gave the germans an excuse to be forcefull.Alot of the people that worked under him,now try to deny the wrong doings he made them do cause it was so vial.Alot of them are ashamed.And he was an aithiest too.

Heil der fuhrer! *nazi salute*
Nah, I'm joking. Uh, let me see. Hitler:
1. Served in World War I before becoming the man who started World War II.
2. Was married, for one day, the last day of his life; he and his wife (until then his mistress) Eva Braun married in 1945 and both committed suicide the next day (at that point it was apparent the allies were going to win the war).
3. Was one of the first politicians to campaign by aircraft, a very new idea at the time.

I just researched Hitler and found a lot of information. It won't take you a long time to find facts about him. Go to a search engine and click on one of many factual information pages.

Why don't you take your lazy butt to the library and do your own home work?
You are a good example of Virtue, integrity, ethics, morality and responsibility being trampled on by the masses in this country!
Worse, you are to be trusted to drive a care and not kill anyone.
And, should your relationship with a female result in her entering that female group called, Motherhood", all bets are off on where your support will be!

A complete(?) library of the works of Hitler.
If you can't find what your looking for in that bunch. It don't exist, One of the three links should have something for you. The first one has MIEN KAMPF in english so you can get an idea of what was in his head, though why you would want to is beyond me.

One thing I heard of but not a 100 percent sure if its true is that he hated jews because his father was jewish and he didnt like him at all. And second he hated to Jews because of their wealth due to buisness.
