Crown Prince Alois Hitler the Hohenzollern (born Alois Hohenzollern) - my Great-Great Grandfather.

Crown Prince Alois Hitler (born Alois Hohenzollern 7 June 1837 - died 3 January 1903) of the German Imperial Family was second born eligible son of Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 1 and employed in civil administration roles in Germany and in nearby Austria. He is most noted as the wealthy father of Kaiser Adolf Hitler 1 the Hohenzollern (Imperial Family of Germany, leader of the Nazi Workers Party, Chancellor of Germany, Prisoner of War and diplomatic asylum resident of Italy).

Prince Alois Hitler was born Alois Hohenzollern via an Imperial parenting agreement to Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 1 and Maria Schklgruber, who were not married, on 7th June 1837.  Prince Alois was endorsed a Prince of the Hohenzollern Royal Family Constitutional Monarchy of Germany, as second eligible son of future Kaiser Wilhelm 1, the other being his older paternal half brother Prince Fredereich Hohenzollern born 1831.

Prince Alois was 2nd in line heir to Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 1 at birth, before relinquishing that place to his brother Prince Fredereich’s son Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 2 when he was born in 1859 in Morwell, in what is now Gippsland, Australia.

Prince Alois changed his surname from Hohenzollern to Hitler to match his mother & stepfather after his mother Maria married and became Mrs Maria Hitler.

During the reign of his father Kaiser Wilhelm Hohenzollern 1 in Germany (1861 to 1888), Prince Alois was named his nephew Prince Wilhelm 2's heir (who was unable to have a child due to medical circumstances), and became 3rd in line to the German Monarchy - authorised by his father the Kaiser.

Prince Alois did not have any children eligible for the Imperial Family when authorised as in line for monarch, as he did not think they would be required if Prince Wilhelm 2 had a child. He had never married or had any parenting agreements officially registered with his father before the birth of any of his children prior to 1885.

After being officially added as a side branch in line for the monarchy, he married his cousin-in-law female partner Klara Pölzl (a relative of his stepfather) which was endorsed by his father Kaiser Wilhelm 1, making his only wife “Princess Klara Hitler the Hohenzollern” in January 1885. Princess Klara remains the only authorised Princess of the German Imperial Family on record since Imperial Constitutionalisation in 1871.
Prince Alois and Princess Klara went on to have 2 eligible children, the first being Prince Edmund Hitler the Hohenzollern born 1886 (died 1897 aged 11).
A second pregnancy resulted in Prince Adolf Hitler the Hohenzollern born 1889 (died 1982 aged 93) and a twin born deceased which did not survive the early months of the pregnancy.
Both Prince Adolf’s deceased born twin and Prince Edmund are buried in Moe Memorial Cemetery, Gippsland, Australia. Near Prince Alois’ father Kaiser Wilhelm 1 (who died in 1888).
Prince Alois became Crown Prince of Germany in 1888 when his older half-brother Kaiser Fredereich Hohenzollern 4 abdicated after a reign of 99 days to his son Kaiser Wilhelm 2.
Crown Prince Alois was murdered in January 1903 during the reign of Kaiser Wilhelm 2. His only living eligible son Prince Adolf Hitler took over as Crown Prince (heir), then became Kaiser Adolf Hitler 1 the Hohenzollern in 1940, successor to his Cousin Kaiser Wilhelm Hohenzollern 2 - who abdicated to him in 1918 (and retained the title of the last ever Emperor of the now defunct and settled "Kingdom of Preusseun" until his death in 1941).
Crown Prince Alois Hitler the Hohenzollern was the Great Great Grandfather of myself, His Imperial Highness Prince Imperial Sir Brian J Webb [Hohenzollern] (born 18 January 1972) - the incoming Kaiser of Germany (heir to Kaiser Adolf 1 and Kaiser Wilhelm 2, under the Great-Grandchild rule, personally authorised  in 1972).
Now, some informal added about Prince Alois, Heterosexual at large.
Princess Klara Hitler the Hohenzollern was married to Adolf’s father Prince Alois. Born Alois Hohenzollern, endorsed as a Prince, second eligible son of future Kaiser Wilhelm Hohenzollern 1. Imperial parenting agreement partner Maria Schklgruber was his mother, who was half-sister to his half-brother Prince Fredereich Hohenzollern 4’s mother Augusta. Augusta and Maria both had an eligible child with future Kaiser Wilhelm Hohenzollern 1, without getting married.
Prince Fredereich, born 1831, looked like Prince Alois’ Mother, and Prince Alois, born 1837, looked like Prince Fredereich’s mother.
Uncle of and eventual heir to His Imperial Highness Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 2, [who went on to become Kaiser in 1888].
Prince Alois had changed his legal surname to Hitler after his mother Maria married Mr. Hitler, to match his stepfather & mother, with all Imperial records updated.
Princess Klara was a relative of Prince Alois’ stepfather Mr. Hitler, a cousin-in-law of her eventual husband Prince Alois before they were married.
She is the only female in my Imperial family history to marry into my Hohenzollern Family of Germany and become a Princess since constitutionalisation on 18 January 1871.
She is in fact the only Princess in my Imperial family history since 1871.
Bear in mind, lunatics run almost riot pretending it is the perfect excuse for any terrorism & organized crime with a crazed look in their eye, called “Princess desperation theory kleptomania” by me, obsessing with the rarity of Princesses in my Imperial Family, to the point of trying to incite total violent chaos at times. They pretend I’ll get desperate enough to name a new Princess eventually, enough to marry an extortionist or terrorist victimizing me, or pretend some female is eligible that isn’t.
Obviously not. No chance of me trying to fake it.
I will not be marrying a female to create a second Princess by marriage, and I will not be adopting an ineligible female child or descendant to do so either.
Female relatives of Prince Alois’ stepfather Mr. Hitler were an easy way for Prince Alois to meet Heterosexual women. He was the only obvious Heterosexual German Royal in a few generations, that is now more historically.
A lot easier than hanging around his Bisexual same gender partnered father, son of a Homosexual man & Homosexual woman, Homosexual half-brother Prince Fredereich, and Homosexual nephew Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 2, their friends, partners etcetera.
Being around family was like being in a gay bar with free toiletries and after shave, and he at least had to get out for some fresh air occasionally.
He was wealthy, a Prince, had a different surname as a pick up line, didn’t think his offspring would ever be eligible to become Monarch, didn’t therefore bother getting married or entering into any Imperial parenting agreements, did rough Ballet, new how to use a sword, did fencing, went steady, got betrothed, maybe even engaged, but only married once to Princess Klara, after being made heir to his nephew Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 2 due to medical circumstances in the 1880’s.
The original rumour that they were biological relatives, cousins, and married had been replied to with a birth certificate from a church stating Prince Alois biological father was Prince Wilhelm Hohenzollern 1, & biological mother was Maria Schklgruber, and he was a Prince via pre-pregnancy official parenting agreement with future Kaiser Wilhelm 1.
The marriage was recognized by Kaiser Wilhelm 1, making Klara Pölzl Princess Klara Hitler of the Hohenzollern Imperial Family of Germany in 1885.
When they had their first child, Edmund Hitler in 1886, they were summoned to the Kaiser Wilhelm 1 to endorse the baby as a Prince.
Alois was terrified, and thought he was going to get a stern lecture about why he had so many ineligible children already. Instead he got a quiet “why didn’t you name him Wilhelm 3?” instead by his slightly confused father Kaiser Wilhelm 1, who was convinced Klara was having twins, and had asked one be named Wilhelm if she did. He was correct, the twin was stolen at birth and grew up ineligible for my Royal Family under the name Ernst Rohm.
In 1888 Kaiser Wilhelm 1 died, and Prince Alois half-brother Kaiser Fredereich 4 became Kaiser. Prince Alois took his family to what is now Gippsland, Australia to take a break after his father's funeral. Whilst they were on holidays, Kaiser Fredereich 4 abdicated to his son Kaiser Wilhelm 2 after a reign of 99 days later, making Alois, Crown Prince Alois.
On April 20, 1889, Prince Adolf Hitler the Hohenzollern was born in what is now Moe, Gippsland, Australia; my Great-Grandfather & Predecessor. Prince Alois paid an enormously over-generous amount of money to rent the small two attic room hospital Prince Adolf was born in and staff at the time. Eye-wateringly large with coins falling on the floor as well. The building still exists in Moe, and there are still dints in the floor from the coins.
Prince Adolf was born with a deceased twin that did not survive the late months of the pregnancy. That deceased born twin was the first Hohenzollern Royal Family relative buried in what is now Moe Memorial Cemetery in April 1889, before they returned to Germany.
The Hohenzollern Family of Germany relative I look the most like is probably Kaiser Adolf’s deceased born twin. What that twin would have approximately looked like, something it took me years to come to grips with.
Prince Adolf was lucky the pregnancy didn’t miscarry when his twin died in the womb in some people’s opinion.
Crown Prince Alois & Princess Klara were summoned to the new Kaiser when they returned to Germany, his Imperial Majesty Kaiser Wilhelm Hohenzollern 2, to inform Alois he was then Crown Prince due to the abdication whilst he was away. Kaiser Wilhelm 2 was then informed they had a new baby and authorized Adolf as a Prince of Germany as one of his first official duties.
Adolf became His Imperial Highness Prince Adolf Hitler of the Hohenzollern Family of Germany, and was 3rd in line behind Prince Edmund, and Crown Prince Alois.
Prince Edmund was murdered in hospital in 1897 at the age of 11, after being admitted for a childhood illness as a precautionary measure. He died when Prince Adolf was about to turn 8, and the family was told it was from a rare complication of German Measles.
Then in 1903 Crown Prince Alois was murdered, making Adolf Crown Prince Adolf, Heir to Kaiser Wilhelm 2 at 13.
Prince Alois widow Princess Klara Hitler the Hohenzollern was murdered in 1907.
That left only Kaiser Wilhelm Hohenzollern 2, and Crown Prince Adolf Hitler the Hohenzollern.
Kaiser Wilhelm 2 abdicated to his only eligible relative, his Cousin Crown Prince Adolf Hitler the Hohenzollern in 1918.
Prince Imperial Adolf was Prince Imperial from 1918, until coronated Kaiser in January 1940.
Kaiser Adolf was never in any way a biological Hitler, it was a legal name change by his father to match his mother & stepfather, which went down one generation to him at birth. He was a paternal Hohenzollern.
