Talk:Hans Frank

message: :In 1942 he lost his positions of authority outside of the General Government after annoying Hitler with a series of speeches...
What was the component of these speeches that annoyed Hitler? How could one annoy Hitler and not be dead or punished in some way, rather than merely transferred? I'm just curious. --NightMonkey 01:16, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

message: What is the source that he was treated "very roughly" by American soldiers after his arrest?  Seems to be contradicted by his gallows statement, in which he thanked the allies for their "kind treatment".  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.189.169.190 (talk) 14:13, 14 February 2008
I agree this is a contradiction; my Uncle was part of the team that arrested Frank, and he even corresponded with the wife, Brigitte, for years afterward, because he was concerned about her welfare.  I doubt he was treated roughly.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Enoebel (talk • contribs) 23:47, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: No.  The beating of Frank by the ARRESTING soldiers is a documented fact - they got out of hand and roughed him up pretty badly.  However, while in prison awaiting trial and during his trial, he was well-treated and this is what Frank was referring to. HammerFilmFan (talk) 15:05, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

message: I don't think that Ignacy Mościcki should be listed as his predecessor. This gives a wrong impression as if there was a continuation of Polish government on Polish territory. In fact, Poland has never introduced a puppet Nazi government. Also, this is inconsistent with Ignacy Mościcki entry, where completely different person is (correctly) listed as Mościcki's successor.

message: The bullet listing of his children in the overly-detailed Family section seem less than notable, more like a list than an encyclopedic entry.  I am no expert on this subject, just happening upon it by way of the Poland article on the Main Page.  Should this be so detailed?  --Scray (talk) 02:31, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: I would  prefer to have a source for the former. The latter is well known. The alleged SS rank would need proper sourcing as well. We currently have a fake issue at the deWP, where a Ram Oren novel (Gertruda's Oath) has been sold as a real biography (:de:Karl Rink, AfDed). The novel sells Frank as an SS-General commanding SS officers "in Poland". In fact, Frank ruled the so called General Government but was never in the SS. Actually he had various infights with the likes of Heydrich and Himmler which sidelined him in various major issues. Those issue would need more care as well in this article.

message: The section titled "Memoirs" contains the statement,
According to Frank, Hitler told him that the letters did not prove that the Frankenberger son was his grandfather but rather his grandmother had merely extorted money from Frankenberger by threatening to claim his paternity of her illegitimate child.
I believe that "grandfather" ought to be replaced by "father" here. While this seems evident from the sentence alone, I'd like to ask someone else to check in case I missed something.--CRau080 (talk) 07:46, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Hans Frank writes ...
"But who was Hitler according to his blood?"
"Racially, Gruber described Hitler as typically non-Nordic, Eastern Slavic."
"On presentation of a letter, he told me that this was a "disgusting blackmail story" by one of his most disgusting relatives, concerning his, Hitler's, ancestry. If I am not mistaken, it was a son of his stepbrother Alois Hitler (from Hitler's father's other marriage) who quietly hinted that "in connection with certain press statements there would be an interest in certain circumstances in our family history"
"These press releases, on alluded to here was that "Hitler had Jewish blood in his veins and therefore had little legitimation to be an anti-Semite"
"But these blackmailing references from relatives were somehow questionable. And I investigated the matter confidentially on behalf of Hitler. Overall, I have found the following from all possible sources: Hitler's father was the illegitimate child of a cook named Schickelgruber from Leonding near Linz who was employed in a Graz household."
"But what is absolutely strange about the story is this: this cook Schickelgruber, Adolf Hitler's grandmother, was employed in a Jewish family household called Frankenberger when she gave birth to her child. And this Frankenberger paid alimony for his son, about nineteen-year-old, beginning with the birth and up to the fourteenth year of this child of the Schickelgruber."
"I would like to state the following: Adolf Hitler himself knew that his father did not come from the sexual intercourse between the Schickelgruber and the Graz Jew. He knew it from his father and grandmother's stories."
"That Adolf Hitler certainly had no Jewish blood in his veins seems to me to be so blatantly proven from his whole manner that no further word is needed."
"So I have to say that it is not entirely out of the question that Hitler's father was therefore a half-Jew, a result of the extramarital relationship between the Schickelgruber and the Graz Jew. According to this, Hitler himself would have been a quarter Jew. Then his hatred of Jews would have been partly due to blood-angry relatives hate psychosis"
