==Life==

Paul Joseph Goebbels was born on October 29th, 1897 in ~~[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheydt~~ Rheydt], German Empire, to Fritz and Katharina Maria Goebbels. He suffered from osteomyelitis, a condition which affects the bone marrow. As he developed this at the age of seven the disease affected his growth. As an adult he stood at just 5 foot 4 inches (roughly 163cm) and had one leg which was far shorter than the other. He had to wear a leg brace for most of his life, and this caused him to be at the centre of ridicule throughout his schooldays, but whilst attending university in Heidelberg he told fellow students that he had been injured in battle, despite the fact he had been turned down for military service. Or he may have had a club foot instead of osteomyelitis (sources vary). Goebbels married Magda Quandt in 1931 and they had 6 children: Helga, Hildegard, Helmut, Holdine, Hedwig and Heidrun, who they killed with cyanide in 1945 before taking their own lives. Magda also had a surviving son from a previous marriage, Harald Quandt, who died in 1967. A photo of the family is in the gallery below.
