I'm starting to genuinely believe that Mark Felton will never run out of fascinating content like this, like a magician! Please could you do some more content regarding nationalist China 1927-1949?
I remember him in docs when I was younger and thought it was so cool that we can now get history unfiltered straight from the horses mouth. Constructively using the internet for good, God bless him.
I remember as an undergrad in 3rd year, I found the book by Hitler's sister-in-law in the University library. I mentioned the story about AH living in Liverpool for a few months to my Professor who said, "You can't believe everything you read." Thanks Mark for doing a video on something I had locked away in my memory for 25 years! A nice little personal flashback to my youth.
@Simon Archbold I found it interesting they chose the name Stuart-Houston...a sneaky homage to Houston Stewart Chamberlain? Perhaps another Mark video for the future.
Mark Felton's channel is what history classes in school are suppose to be, I'm turning 16 soon and never was much of a history buff (Especially ww2) until I found marks channel when i was about 14. I swear even with the darkest topics he still manages to make me feel comfortable and interested, love ya Mr Felton
Yes , his videos are just as compelling as the classes I attended at wash.u. in st.louis,mo and grad. school at mcgill u. I montreal canada. Alway marvelous content here !
I agree. I believe it is because Mark presents history as it is, with a curiosity for truth and a penchant for detail. It is unique from bias, nationalistic narrative so often associated with (especially this) history.
@Simon Archbold Wow, it took you all day to come up with that? To you and all of your type, get a life other than waiting to make moronic statements in the comment sections. Also, try finding a life other then behind your screen.
I personally knew a Hungarian who was Alois Hitler's boss in some commercial operation post-war. The Hungarian had spent most of the war in Berlin but returned to Budapest just in time to be wounded by the Russians while defending Budapest. He was captured by the Russians but escaped and made his way via Vienna to Berlin where he met Alois.
A few years ago I was at a pub in Euston called the Bricklayer's Arms and the publican told me that Hitler's brother used to drink there. Always wondered if he was right or not.
I've always found it interesting Hitler's obsession with England. A crude mixture of racialism (Anglo-Saxons) /military pragmatism (England would guard the "rear" while Germany invaded Russia.) It would be incredible if Mark would do a wider video on Hitler's views on Britain progressing from first world war to the late '30s.
@@scoe5908 "Since the English are a Germanic people". The significant majority of people in England, are, and never have been "Germanic".

@@tommeakin1732 Now that’s not true, and we know it now that things like AncestryDNA are cheap and accessible to all. Some additions to the English gene pool are very recent- such as from the Vikings who colonized northern England and parts of Ireland and Scotland etc up to the relatively recent 11th century. You can find Viking DNA in some English people and not others. Other recent additions would be the Saxon heritage versus the Angles... and so on. And Norman DNA versus Saxon and Angle, etc etc. Yes, by now this DNA is intertwined in most peoples’ genetics, but the fact remains that these “injections” of genetic material are relatively recent, in comparison to say the Celts or Picts etc.
That was amazing work. How was he able to find the paper trail of hitlers family??? Figured back in the 1800s it was very easy to disappear or have no one ever know what happened to you
Superb quality, informative and just bloody brilliant history. At now 67, I am a part of the last generation who have/had relatives suffering WWII. I saw the devastation in London and Brighton in the late 1950's.
At the top of Stanhope Street is a large and well established synagogue that pre-dates any of the Hitlers. As for the house that was bombed, I have heard that it was in fact the last building destroyed by enemy action in Liverpool. You just couldn't make this up.
Just to add to this, Kanso Yoshida (1895-1973, known to his friends as Paddy Murphy) was a Japanese-born British seaman who was related to Japanese Emperor Hirohito by marriage. He was a resident of England for most of his life, specifically in Liverpool from 1938. He apparently went by the name Paddy as his friends and colleagues had difficulty pronouncing his name. There are also unconfirmed reports, which I would so love to be true, that Emperor Haile Selassie was a some time resident in Liverpool after he escaped from Ethiopia.

Yea, I was thinking about the forced himself on them concept, especially the women who bore him a child out of wedlock. Because of the dynamic, of him being a government official, they would have been powerless in those days. He look's like, and from what I've heard about him, a really evil person.
@@warrenmilford1329 I don’t think that’s the case... there were millions of government officials around the world in those days, it’s doubtful that they were all running around forcing themselves on others. Also, I think they were talking about Alois the younger, the waiter.
Mark would you please make a video about the bombing of Old Trafford by the Luftwaffe?, fellow Man United fans and myself would love to learn a little about Old Trafford's history and the Manchester Blitz. It is our home and the Theatre of Dreams...little information is available online I believe it was in 1941?
A bright sunny morning after a restful night with my neuralgia quietened down, a pleasant day ahead, a Mark Felton video with breakfast... it doesn't get much better than this.
Remember a Hitler living in Kalmar, Sweden. We looked him up in the telephone directory, but fortunately never called him. But our family name is worn by just me and my relatives in Sweden. However there are people outside Sweden also named the same, we no relatives.
@@historyandhorseplaying7374 : No, Hitler is a south german ( swabian/ bavarian) version of Hüttner or Hüttler, which means ,A poor man who owns only a hut' ( Hütte means in english hut or cabin). In Germamy/ Austria name Hauser / houser- houseowner, Hofer/ farm owner ( Hof- in this context farm), Huber / bavarian- austrian : Owner of a small farm. I hope, this helps. Greetings from Germany
Interesting video , I do recall a story that was written in Churchill’s bodyguard , that Churchill visited Germany and , almost through hitler’s political adviser (can’t recall the name off the top of my head ) , nearly had a meeting with hitler !
Yes, this would have been Ernest Hanfstaengl. Supposedly, he was having dinner with Churchill and Winston expressed an interest in meeting Adolf. Hitler begged off claiming he had a meeting to attend, but Hanfstaengl later went out again and saw Hitler descending the stairs. Once again, he asked Hitler and again Hitler begged off claiming he was too tired and unprepared to meet Churchill and didn't want to make a weak impression on him.
Thank you, Mark for your continued videos: I've learned more as to watching your films than I ever did in either primary, secondary or colleagte school courses.
@Simon Archbold I own the WW2 DVD collection that I purchased at the Smithsonian....almost 50 hours of narrated video. I've watched the entire collection thrice. Mark adds details within his clips that weren't covered at all within the said archived production. Best to you as well...!
So this explains why the City was so heavily Bombed. As that's One Way to end those dreadfully awkward Family Christmas reunions.. With typical German efficiency. As everyone in the family were already fed~up with receiving his signed 'Book' every single Birthday. Hilarious stuff.
Although he is repellent, Hitler is more fascinating to me, especially after hearing him talking in normal conversation and listening to his speaches, a dichotomy of personality, the public and private persona, so very strange.
Watch in youtube 1998 interview of pol pot. You will never know that the old man was the evil responsible for the killing fields in Cambodia. Remove the title and you will never notice it was him.

I think my next door neighbour IS hitler. Disguised 'herself' a bit and put on a few hundredweight but she's still the same old power crazed maniac, - no longer seeking world domination, just the annexation of all local public land onto her house. Doesn't look a day over 179.

It's sad. I heard about William Hitler's two sons years ago. Both vowed to live celibately and to never have children, wanting the Hitler line to stop with them. If there's any evil left in the Hitler gene pool they want it eradicated. The poor men, what a burden they think they have to carry.
The rest of the Hitler clan really seemed to have no evil nature though. Alois Sr. was a drunken bastard, but that's not exceptional- there's lots of that in society. It seems Hitler resulted from nurture, not nature.
Hi Mark.I'm so glad I stumbled across your channel. You dig up some very interesting stories unlike other Channels. I want to commend you for that because it must take numerous hours on your part to accomplish that...Thanks for doing a fantastic job,Love the channel.
It would be interesting to know about American Germans support of him. Did he visit New York before ww2, was there a parade in his honor? In 1995 I was looking to buy a car, and when I asked car dealer for a test drive he said: “during the war I killed people like you!” With a German accent…. That was less than funny.

Astonishing, interesting, surprising information perfectly researched and presented. I suspect you might have done this once or twice before.Thank you Mark!
@@falixxxxx According to the book "Mengele: The Complete Story" by Gerald L. Posher and John Ware, his son did have a child. On page 286, it states that Mengele was not informed on the birth on his son's child and only found out later. Apparently he was quite hurt by it. I'm not sure if he had any more children after that, or whatever came of that child. I can't imagine it would have been an easy life being the grandchild of Josef Mengele.
Mark, great work as always. If you can, make a video about "Operation Terminus", when a group of former Nazis, led by Werner Naumann, tried to overthrow the government of Konrad Adenauer in the early fifties.
Good thing that none of the Hitler relatives living in Liverpool ever had any apparent musical inclinations. It boggles the mind to think if they had, if you know what I mean. Thanks again, Dr. Felton for your research and presentation.
Lots of old stories in Liverpool of Hitler stay in Liverpool, he even had a favourite pub he frequented, even going to Goodison Park to watch Everton play a few times. (poor sod) 😂 seriously though, these stories of his stay in Liverpool are strong and have been passed down by previous generations. Jury is out on this one.

In 1995 I was looking to buy a car, and when I asked car dealer for a test drive he said: “during the war I killed people like you!” With a German accent…. That was less than funny.
@@nemo2203 that's funny.
@@daeph123 This is strange…. You never heard of support of him in this country? Fortunately it didn’t last long.
Fascinating as always . Always liked and Shared .
Interesting fact: while Aloise was here in dublin he was put in prison for a few months for stealing from the Sherbourne Hotel.
Really??
Aloise was put in prison for a few months for stealing.
Enjoyed the video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Reminds me of the Monty Python sketch about Mr Hilter.
That's exactly what I was thinking
I think William had a part in one episode of the Flying Circus ;-)
Hahaha! I love that skit.
Hoping there was an Arthur Hitler, “Hitler’s the name, Arthur Hitler.” Thinking Eric Idle here...” Hitler by name but not by nature...”
Love the vids keep it up
His nephew lived in NY and joined US Navy.
He hated his Uncle.
An article is in NY times.
Hated, yet tried to exploit their connection. Der Failure finally sent him packing back to the US. Yes, he joined the US Navy.
@@jguenther3049 Actually he helped spread rumor that his Uncle (furher) was from Jewish background..
And hated his Uncle.
He lived near where I grew up on Long Island ny.
Ich nicht verstanden das inter lassen ist kranken kopt.
@@Nudnik1 Frank, the Nazi Party attorney, apparently also repeated these rumors post 1945, or at a minimum, was familiar with them. They didn't check out.
@@jguenther3049 either way he joined the US Navy and fought against nazis a fact.
Another fine video Mr Felton .Well done that man.
"Alois was determined to make his own way through the world. This enraged (Alois) Hitler's father, but at this point he was an old man so he just let it go, then dropped dead in a pub"
Almost makes the old man sound a little English!
@Simon Archbold or scottish 😂
As always, fascinating. Thank you!
Future famous Austrian painter visiting his relatives in England in an alternate universe.
Nothing alternative about that universe I guess
Another Amazing Topic we have never heard about
Imagine that, Adolf's half brother might have walked on Penny Lane.
On the corner is a hitler with a motorcar
And little children laugh at him behind his back
Very interesting, it's seem like Dr Felton will never run out of things to teach us.
Early history lesson in Michigan! Thanks Mark.
Astonishing, interesting, surprising information perfectly researched and presented. I suspect you might have done this once or twice before.Thank you Mark!
Christian Mengele lives in the L.A. area. He never met his grandfather of course. He is an artist and suffers from knowing who his grandfather was.
There's a Jason Mengele in Bakersfield, CA
He shouldn't suffer. After all, he didn't commit his grandfather's crimes. I don't believe in "genetic guilt".
@@falixxxxx I don't know who he is. I do know that Christian is a real grandson.
@@falixxxxx According to the book "Mengele: The Complete Story" by Gerald L. Posher and John Ware, his son did have a child.
On page 286, it states that Mengele was not informed on the birth on his son's child and only found out later. Apparently he was quite hurt by it. I'm not sure if he had any more children after that, or whatever came of that child. I can't imagine it would have been an easy life being the grandchild of Josef Mengele.
@@falixxxxx Meaningless without credible documentation. Besides, no one is looking to bother any grandchildren.
As always, fascinating, factual,narrated in a style that ensures that you are glued until the end. Excellent video and thank you
Mark, great work as always. If you can, make a video about "Operation Terminus", when a group of former Nazis, led by Werner Naumann, tried to overthrow the government of Konrad Adenauer in the early fifties.
Love being one of the early viewers
Good thing that none of the Hitler relatives living in Liverpool ever had any apparent musical inclinations. It boggles the mind to think if they had, if you know what I mean. Thanks again, Dr. Felton for your research and presentation.
"And remember not to mention Hamburg, Basil."

Wow, someone keeps deleting my comment “All we are saying is give Blitzkrieg a chance”
@@Cartoonman154 and their hit single "Gelbe U-Boot"
We all live in a yellow Underseeboot doesn't quite have the same ring to it.
Love your videos...Lot of home work u have done
Hitler also has relatives in SE Missouri. I once had a student miss class to attend the funeral of her uncle, A. Hitler. "A" for Andrew.
Must not be related. Hitler/ Hittler/Hittner/ Hüttler/ Hüttner simply means ,A poor man living in a hut' ( Hütte- hut/ cabin).
@@brittakriep2938 And?
@@martinc.720 : The same name must not be a sign of being related.
@@martinc.720 : Wrong button used! There had been formerly lots of poor people, so Hitler ( in variations) is not ,chained' to a single Clan/Sippe.
@@brittakriep2938 Besser als 'Schicklgruber.'
Nicely informative video.
Lots of old stories in Liverpool of Hitler stay in Liverpool, he even had a favourite pub he frequented, even going to Goodison Park to watch Everton play a few times. (poor sod) 😂 seriously though, these stories of his stay in Liverpool are strong and have been passed down by previous generations. Jury is out on this one.
Epic comment lol
I'D RATHER WALK ALONE
Didn’t Hitler teach Ringo’s father to drum?
Fookin wot?
@@historyandhorseplaying7374 Nah, Ringo was never that good.
@@historyandhorseplaying7374 I'm telling you there's a connection there....the Luftwaffe bombed Old Trafford in 1941....not a coincidence!!!!!! I'D RATHER WALK ALONE!!!!
How is it you've never managed to make a single video that isn't fascinating? And I personally lived and went to school in Liverpool!
Do the Video about the Fall of Soviet Union
Well researched sir... 👍👍👍👍
