Born "Aloys Schicklgruber," he changed his legal name by use of deception when he was 39 years old.
He was a minor customs official who had been born to an unmarried woman, Maria Schicklgruber. As a young man he used his birthname, but in 1876, Alois took on his step-father's surname by misleading the church into declaring him the legal son of Johann Georg Hiedler.
