Austrian cattle farmer is Hitler's cousin

SOURCE: The Sun (UK) (4-6-10)

ONE of Hitler's closest surviving relatives has been tracked down by The Sun - living on a cattle farm.

Gerhard Koppensteiner looks remarkably like the Führer.

But he is desperate to play down the connection as he quietly rears his cows in a remote village in northern Austria....

Neighbours in the mountain village near the Czech border know of the link. But one said: "You can't hold Hitler's crimes against them."
