In 1933, William Hitler was in Nazi Germany, hoping to benefit from his uncle's rise to power.
"He travelled to Britain in 1937 where he gave an interview to the Daily Express declaring himself, in now heavily accented English, to be 'the only legal descendant of the Hitler family' and even striking poses adopted by his uncle...
"William declined to renounce his British passport in return for a top job in the regime. He then tried to blackmail the Führer.

"Hans Frank, the former Nazi lawyer responsible for millions of deaths while he was the Governor General of Poland, revealed how William had written to his uncle in the late 1930s threatening to expose the Hitlers' 'unusual family history'.
"It was a veiled threat that he would confirm the long-held rumour that Hitler's paternal grandfather was, in fact, a Jewish merchant, Leopold Frankenberger, who had had an affair with his grandmother, Maria, during her time in service to the family in Graz."
