Hitler's mother did not have any higher education studies. She was a housekeeper, in her future husband's (Alois Hitler) home at the age of 16. They belonged to the same family, and she used to call him uncle. She was 20 years younger than her husband, who later became Adolf Hitler's father. She was pregnant when he married her. Shortly after giving birth, the baby died, and their second baby also died. They had a third baby who died as well, then Adolf Hitler was born and survived, another boy was born and died, and a following baby girl, who survived to adulthood as well. So basically out of 6 children, only 2 survived. In later years, Adolf's mother was a very loving and supportive mother who was concerned about Adolf's education.
