Johann Nepomuk Hiedler
Johann Nepomuk Hiedler, also known as Johann Nepomuk Hüttler (19 March 1807 – 17 September 1888), was a maternal great-grandfather and possibly also the paternal grandfather of Adolf Hitler.
Johann Nepomuk was named after the Bohemian Saint Johann von Nepomuk.
Some view this name as evidence that Nepomuk and subsequently his great-grandson Adolf Hitler had Czech ancestry.
However, Johann von Pomuk/Johann Nepomuk, was an important saint for Bohemians of both German and Czech ethnicity.
Nepomuk thus only indicates ties to Bohemia and central Europe.
Nepomuk became a relatively prosperous farmer and was married to Eva Maria Decker (1792–1873) who was fifteen years his senior.
On 19 January 1830, Eva Hiedler gave birth to Johanna.
Legally, he was the step-uncle of Alois Schicklgruber (later Alois Hitler), the stepson of his brother Johann Georg Hiedler, a wandering miller.
For reasons unknown, Johann Nepomuk took in Alois when he was a boy and raised him.
It is possible that he was, in fact, Alois' natural father but could not acknowledge this publicly due to his marriage.
Another, and perhaps simpler, explanation for this kindness is that Nepomuk took pity on the ten-year-old Alois and took him in.
Alois was, after all, the stepson of his brother Johann Georg, and Nepomuk may have known that in fact Alois was Johann Georg's natural child.
After the death of Alois' mother Maria, it could hardly have been a suitable life for a ten-year old child to be raised by an itinerant miller.
Nepomuk left Alois a considerable portion of his life savings.
Nepomuk's granddaughter, Klara, had a longstanding affair with Alois before marrying him in 1885 after the death of his second wife.
In 1889 she gave birth to Adolf Hitler.

Johanna Hiedler
Johanna Pölzl (née Hiedler; 19 January 1830 – 8 February 1906), was the maternal grandmother of Adolf Hitler.
Johanna was born and lived her entire life in the village of Spital (part of Weitra), in the Waldviertel of Lower Austria.
On 5 September 1848, Johanna married Johann Baptist Pölzl (1825–1901), a farmer and the son of Johann Pölzl and Juliana (Walli) Pölzl.
The couple would eventually have five sons and six daughters.
Of their eleven children, only two sons and three daughters survived into adulthood.
Their seventh child, and third daughter, Klara, was born on their farm in Spital on 12 August 1860.
It is claimed that another daughter was tortured to death in Gulag just for being Adolf's cousin.
On 17 September 1888, Johanna's elderly parents, Johann Nepomuk Hiedler (or Hüttler) and Eva Maria (née Decker), died.
Her daughter Klara would eventually become the third wife of Alois Hiedler
(né Schicklgruber – Alois decided, at the age of 40, to take his stepfather's surname, Hiedler,
the spelling of which was later changed by a clerk to Hitler).
Alois was the illegitimate son of Maria Schicklgruber, who had married Johanna's paternal uncle, Johann Georg Hiedler on 10 May 1842.
Alois would claim in later life that Johann Georg Hiedler was not his stepfather, but in fact his biological father, and he was officially declared Johann's legitimate son in 1876, although this claim as to Alois's real paternity has remained the subject of much debate among historians.
Klara and Alois had six children.
The fourth of these was Adolf Hitler (born 20 April 1889).
Only one other of Klara's children – the youngest, named Paula – survived into adulthood.
Klara's husband, Alois, also had two other children, Alois junior and Angela, from his second marriage (to Franziska Matzelsberger).
