If we move a little south from Blackpool, as contributors may recall, there is a myth that Adolf Hitler visited Liverpool before the Great War – it was the subject of a novel by Beryl Bainbridge. AH certainly did have a half brother, Alois who lived in the city at that time. Incidentally, the son of Alois was William Hitler, who went off to Germany to try his luck with uncle. He left Germany just before the war and finally ended up in the US Navy. His story was told in a not very good book called The Last of the Hitlers. One interesting fact omitted by the book was that William ‘Paddy’ Hitler was an early member of the British Union of Fascists. A few years ago I came across a placard for a fascist meeting that he addressed in Northampton Market Square in 1933.
