By M. Alex Johnson, msnbc.com
New evidence has emerged to support the disputed theory that Adolf Hitler had a secret son in 1918 after an affair with a teenage French mistress, a French newsmagazine reported Friday.
The man, Jean-Marie Loret, died in 1985 after an eventful life that saw him join the French Resistance and fight German forces led by the man who the evidence suggests was his father.
Loret claimed to be Hitler's son in an autobiography he published in 1981. The claim has been hotly debated by historians ever since, with the weight of opinion concluding that the story was bunk.
The new evidence which includes handwriting analysis, documents indicating Hitler secretly supported the woman financially and paintings signed "Adolf Hitler" discovered in her home is outlined by Le Point magazine, whose report Friday was widely picked up in the French media but largely ignored by German news outlets.
Adolf Hitler purportedly fathered Jean-Marie Loret in 1917 with a 16-year-old French mistress.

The person who is claimed to be Hitler's child appears to have had nine childrne:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Marie_Loret
More on Hitler's sister, Paula Hitler:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paula_Hitler
Hitler also had a half sister (same Father, different mother):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angela_Hitler
and Hitler had a half brother (same Father, different mother):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alois_Hitler,_Jr.
Paula Hitler and his half sister was mentioned In Hitler's will and were suppose to get a Pension, but it is doubted they received anything;
I would question anything in the article, I quote from the article:
Loret, meanwhile, was with Resistance forces at the Maginot Line in 1939, Le Point reported, and in 1940, his unit fought a fierce battle against German troops in the Ardennes. During the German occupation, Loret worked as a Resistance spy under the name "Clement," it said.
In 1939 France was at war with Germany, but Germany would NOT even invade France till MAY 1940, thus NO resistance in 1939, he had to be a soldier in the Maginot line, which was surrounded by the German invasion via Belgium in May 1940. Just pointing out an error in the writing, more sloppy writing then anything else. The same with the right to Hitler's writings, any of Hitler's heirs would get NOTHING for that is what was left after the Allies confiscated all of Hitler's property at the end of WWII.
