Death

What did she die of, and where did she die (and buried)?

Mental illness

Angeblich war sie das einzige Familienmitglied im Stammbaum der Hitlers, die keine psychische Stöhrung hatte. Simon 4. August 2005

(Allegedly she was the only relative of Hitler's who didn't have psychological "problems.") Translation by Wyss 13:45, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is unsupported. Wyss 13:45, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

At the bottom here, [1] although "seems" is quite weak.

Surname in article title

Notice that English Wikipedia is the only interwiki that titles her article 'Angela Hitler'. The others use her married name. GilliamJF 03:09, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that, too, Gilliam. I had a difficult time finding her in the English version of Wikipedia. I had to follow a link from the Berghof to get to this article.--JGC1010 (talk) 03:38, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What happened to her second daughter?

What became of Elfreide. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.206.165.18 (talk) 23:58, 20 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Elfriede died supposedly in 1993 (aged 83) in Linz, Upper Austria.

Did Elfriede have any children? Best name (talk) 08:44, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes at least one, a son named Heiner.

Why is Elfriede's husband referred to as German here and elsewhere? He was born in Austria. Maybe he received his Doctorate in Germany? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stirling7 (talk • contribs) 19:09, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Another matter

The following sentence appears near the end of the article: "Also he let her and her younger sister Paula hand over 100,000 Reichsmark for further life." I could make a guess as to what this sentence means. But it might be a wrong guess. Maybe the word hand should be have. The phrase "for further life"...maybe that means for the future. --JGC1010 (talk) 03:44, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, the sentence as it stands is meaningless. Replacing "hand" with "have" would certainly make it meaningful; or else, one could replace "hand" with "handed"; that would also clarify the meaning (the meaning in either case would be that Angela and Paula would receive the 100,000 Reichsmarks). I would also say "Reichsmarks" instead of "Reichsmark" (twice in this paragraph). -- User: Mateatt, 22:09, June 9 (UTC)

Second husband

On what basis is the claim in this article made that Martin Hammitzsch was Jewish? Looking at this grave marker of his parents would seem to indicate he had a Roman Catholic background: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Grab_von_Carl_Otto.,_Anna,_Heinrich_Hammitzsch.JPG. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stirling7 (talk • contribs) 22:14, 4 January 2014

Of course he wasn't. He was a member of the Nazi party. Someone made him Jewish last year [2] Paul B (talk) 19:15, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
