I picked up a copy of A<i>n Englishman in Paris</i> by Albert Dresden Vandam. It is noted on the timeline that this may have some significance in 1820.<br />
<br />
From the timeline:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
1820 - Albert Vandam, an Englishman, wrote in his memoirs of "An Englishman in Paris", speaks of a certain person whom he knew towards the end of Louis Philippe's reign and whose way of life bore a curious resemblance to that of the Comte de Saint-Germain. "He called himself Major Fraser", wrote Vandam, "lived alone and never alluded to his family. Moreover he was lavish with money, though the source of his fortune remained a mystery to everyone. He possessed a marvelous knowledge of all the countries in Europe at all periods. His memory was absolutely incredible and, curiously enough, he often gave his hearers to understand that he had acquired his learning elsewhere than from books. Many is the time he has told me, with a strange smile, that he was certain he had known Nero, had spoken with Dante, and so on." Like Saint-Germain, Major Fraser had the appearance of a man of between forty and fifty, of middle height and strongly built. The rumor was current that he was the illegitimate son of a Spanish prince. After having been, also like Saint-Germain, a cause of astonishment to Parisian society for a considerable time, he disappeared without leaving a trace. Was it the same Major Fraser who, in 1820, published an account of his journey in the Himalayas, in which he said he had reached Gangotri, the source of the most sacred branch of the Ganges River, and bathed in the source of the Jumna River?<br />
James Baillie Fraser "Journal of a Tour" from 1820 is the book in question.</blockquote>

It states that Major Fraser, a mysterious man with unknown ancestry, often went to Estaminet du Divan for an hour or two just to read the papers. The papers in question were the varying rags of the day including Sue's and Dumas' newspapers. He is noted as being a favorite regular (though he never dined), he spoke English but locals were sure he wasn't English (as his name may suggest), and he was the best dressed man there (but not like Sue).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Major Fraser is described as wearing "<i>a tight-fitting, short-skirted, blue frock-coat, gray trousers, of a shape which since then we have defined as "pegtops," but the fashion of which was borrowed from the Cossacks.</i>"</div>
<div>
See picture to understand what "pegtops" are.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNkHw8Dv4zE7vYnN2XEkj1uLAwsDT5PgTfa3dtM7DA6W_kL6Ar8QcCa20fIVQxQ2zcvNQSBAk52Kij3IVbQqMLtQDgfU8WIBY9e-m1MA4EHuxwgS6gx3FlvTcnmip9CaykvzqXkylQW9Zu/s1600/rue+lafitte+and+boulevard+italiens.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="747" data-original-width="669" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNkHw8Dv4zE7vYnN2XEkj1uLAwsDT5PgTfa3dtM7DA6W_kL6Ar8QcCa20fIVQxQ2zcvNQSBAk52Kij3IVbQqMLtQDgfU8WIBY9e-m1MA4EHuxwgS6gx3FlvTcnmip9CaykvzqXkylQW9Zu/s320/rue+lafitte+and+boulevard+italiens.png" width="286" /></a></div>
Major Fraser was noted as being a bachelor and never talked about his family/parentage. he lived by himself in an entresol at the corner of the Rue Lafitte and the Boulevard des Italiens (see Google Map picture). He always had money, but the source of his income was unknown. He wasn't a gambler. Vandam suggests that Major Fraser could be an illegitimate child from the court of Charles IV and Ferdinand VII of Spain -- but Vandam doesn't have any reason for this theory. He then goes onto say that Major Fraser was so pleasant, gentle, and ready to oblige that no one bothered to delve into his past. The only time he became cross, that Vandam could recall, was during a comedy by Leon Gozlan and it was in regards to a major who had three crosses. An inquiry into the matter had Alexandre Dumas, a friend of Gozlan, at the center of it all. It was a slight jab at the Major after Dumas and Gozlan heard that he had received the Cross of the Legion of Honour.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
According to Vandam, Major Fraser had no love of politicians and rarely spoke of politics of the day. When he did talk of politics, he appeared to have knowledge and intimate details from every civilized country and from every period. Vandam notes that he only had a few books at his apartment, so his extraordinary knowledge seemed remarkable. When asked about even the most trifling subject, he could talk about it in detail while keeping his apt listeners interested. Dumas often tried to get him to write articles, but could not get him to write a thing.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It suddenly mentions that Major Fraser died and there weren't any letters/papers to let on about his parentage. He simply had a file of receipts and a scrap of paper attached to one -- the receipt of the funeral company for his grave and burial expense. He also had arranged for notice of his death to be run for a whole week in <i>Journal des Debats</i>. His possessions were sold and the money was supposed to be given to the poor.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This all concludes on page 133.</div>
<div>
<br />
---------------------------------<br />
<br />
Alright, so this leads me to ask some questions. What info can I found about Estaminet du Divan? Does Gozlan or Dumas also have any memoirs/recollections of Major Fraser? Can I find the obituary in the <i>Journal des Debats</i>? What can I find on Major Fraser?<br />
<br />
In <i>Dumas' Paris</i> by Francis Miltoun (<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/files/35125/35125-h/35125-h.htm">online</a>), pages 116 - 118, the Estaminet du Divan and Albert Vandam are both mentioned, but there is no mention of Major Fraser.<br />

Alexander Dumas (1802-1870), if you don't know, was a writer. He worked for a newspaper and famously wrote the novels: <i>The Three Musketeers</i>, <i>The Count of Monte Cristo</i>, and <i>Georges</i>.<br />

Leon Gozlan (1803-1866) was a novelist and playwright in France who specialized in comedies. In 1846 he was made a member of the Legion of Honour; in 1859 he was made an officer of the order.<br />

<b>>></b>October 16, 1864. Major Fraser obituary notice from <i>Le Tintamarre</i>, page 4. In English, this translates to:<br />
<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i> M. Nestor Roqueplan continues to make sunny days and the drama drama of the Constitutionals.<br /> In one of his last soap operas on the theater, he devoted A notice to Major Fraser, one of the most original figures, They say, of the Parisian scene. I remember being very small as a child I heard about Major Fraser who went from Paris to Brussels and came back in thirty-six hours, to dada on a post bidet. I born not thought that this fact constitutes one of the most original figures of the Parisian world.<br /> Major Fraser has passed on this earth; we ask ourselves of which utility it was there; what memories, apart from Mr. Roqueplan's soap opera, have there been?<br /> This man we are trying to present as an original was, at the time of his death, administrator of several railway lines.<br /> He was a man who combined solidity with originality.</i></blockquote>
<br />
This could possibly be a copy of the obituary that was mentioned. The date would fit into the same timeline as Dumas, Gozlan, and Vandam. </div>

This is nearly all the information I have been able to find on this guy. Since not everyone reads French, here's a general translation of his little bio:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Born on March 28, 1908 in Basse-Goulaine (Loire-Atlantique). He got a law degree in 1928 and was a long-time journalist and the last editor of <i>The Information Financiere</i>. He received an award in history from the French Academy. He is a member of Club des Cent and the Typographic Company. He has written 5 books on the reign of Louis XIV. He is preparing a book on the Basilica de Saint-Denis and the profanations of 1793."</blockquote>

Both handwriting styles are small and tight. The capital "M"s are different, almost mirrored to each other. The flourish is on opposite sides. Capital "G" and "A" differ between the two handwritings. Different "J". Similar lowercase letters and letter flourishes.</div>

I think it's a bust. The guy in the photo doesn't share the facial features that we get from the paintings and engravings of the Count. Handwriting is close, but there are some key letters that are really different.</div>

<b>Why Did I Bother With This Guy?</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All tangents need to be looked at before either accepting it or discarding it. Also, this guy wrote books that fit into the time frame. I might have some cool new resources for my bibliography! I have to go through the books.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was really intrigued by this guy's work. I mean, aside from the last name, he really seemed to like writing about the time frame that the Count would have been flourishing in.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm going to move this guy's work into Books Not By The Count under the BIBLIOGRAPHY. It's still relevant, due to subject matter, but just by our Count.</div>

I'm still not done with Jacques Saint-Germain. Since we first got word about a vampire legend in New Orleans, I will be traveling to NOLA in November. I have started inquiries about the origins of the legend.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have scoured legend variations for particular details - names, dates, etc. I spent SO MUCH TIME going through old newspapers, but there has not been anything written about a "Jacques Saint-Germain" that I have been able to find.</div>

I get a fairly steady stream of emails from people and I'm wondering if I actually have...fans. It seems like a foreign thing and I feel so awkward for wondering about it. Do I need some sort of social media something for this blog like a facebook group? Let's see who is interested. NEW facebook group: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/findingcountstgermain/">Finding Count St. Germain</a></div>

I found nothing about a woman leaping from second floor balcony on Royal Street. I also could not find a published police report about the women killed in 1933.<br />
<br />
I did find an advert for the storefront at 1039 Royal Street; the residence is at 1041 Royal Street. The advert (click to enlarge it) comes from:<br />
The Times-Democrat (New Orleans, Louisiana) · 12 May 1901, Sun · Page 18<br />
<br />
Obviously, you could buy Queen Freezers from A.J. Bessec in May 1901. This seems like pointless information.<br />
<br />
---------------------------------<br />
<br />
I took a break from scouring newspapers to scroll through google searches. There are a few minor differences in stories - some say that he showed up in 1902, others say 1904, etc. Nearly everyone says that there are still sightings and attacks carried out by Jacques Saint Germain aka "Vampire Jack". It's supposed to be one thing that inspired Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's Count St. Germain novels.<br />
<br />
Side Note: If you haven't read any of the novels, you should start with the first one <i>Hotel Transylvania</i>. I liked it.<br />
<br />
----------------------------------<br />
<br />
One thing I have an issue with is the lack of details in the stories about Jacques Saint Germain. We don't have any names of any people that he mingled with and we don't have any specific dates. We just have this regurgitated legend.<br />
<br />
With the previous blog post (<a href="http://findingcountstgermain.blogspot.com/2018/07/jacques-st-germain-vampire-of-nola.html">HERE</a>) you'll notice that I found some books written by Jacques Saint Germain. I was actually hoping to find a book just on the legend of "Vampire Jack", but these other books came up instead. The oldest one I could find is from December 31, 1938. The topics of the books are all on topics that the Count would of had knowledge of or interest in, such as: 18th century France, industrialization in France, and entertaining. I cannot find any records or photos of Jacques Saint Germain (the author) via ancestry.com or google or abebooks.com. Autographed copies of books were ordered for the purpose of comparing the handwriting with the Count's. You can find a list of Jacques Saint Germain's books on the Timeline.<br />
<br />
--------------------------------<br />
<br />
Books about Vampire Jack:<br />
<br />
Woywod Crandle, Marita. <i>New Orleans Vampires: History and Legend</i>. Arcadia Publishing, 2017.<br />
<br />
Are there really no books dedicated to this guy? I'm barely finding anything.<br />
<br />
-------------------------------<br />
<br />
OKAY...so definitely expect Part 3.<br />
<br />
If you come across anything that you think may be of interest, send me an email or leave a comment below. I'm looking for illustrations, paintings, photos, or other media about Jacques Saint-Germain. I am also looking for news articles -- which I am not finding. Has anyone had any sightings recently of Vampire Jack?<br />
<br />
Also, I'm thinking about setting something up on Facebook -- like a facebook group or something. I get a handful of emails each month, usually with info that I already know about, so I guess there is some interest out there. If you are interested in joining a FB group (if I start one), please let me know in the comments.</div>

Thanks to Solomon Ben Abraham for giving me a heads up on this. I did some digging around and would like to present to you....<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Jacques St. Germain, Vampire of NOLA</h3>
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="450" src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!4v1532751680483!6m8!1m7!1sbQEuIRzkeVDRbiQnQEEsWw!2m2!1d29.9611789300179!2d-90.06191250763119!3f284.3451800788754!4f13.617940551346507!5f0.7820865974627469" style="border: 0;" width="600"></iframe><br />
<br />
In 1902, a man named Jacques St. Germain arrived on the New Orleans, Louisiana scene and took up residence at 1041 Royal Street. You can view the inside <a href="https://www.nola.com/homegarden/index.ssf/2016/03/one_of_the_french_quarters_mos.html">HERE</a>. The home is part of a NOLA vampire tour and is privately owned by the Blondeau's. He was a handsome cavalier, a lady's man, and was often out and about in the French Quarter's social scene - whether hosting or out at clubs. He was very fond of throwing lavish dinner parties for socialites. Invitations were highly sought after due to the food, fine wine, and entertainment. St. Germain would often regale his guests with stories of his vast travels through France, Italy, Egypt, and other parts of Africa.<br />
<br />
He was described as being highly intelligent, a patron of the arts, a master of languages, very wealthy, and very fond of Bourbon Street.<br />
<br />
St. Germain had a solid grasp of English, since he had come over from Paris, France. He could, in fact, speak several languages fluently - English, French, Spanish, and Italian (as noted in tales told about him). He would often talk about things that he had witnessed decades and centuries before, leaving his guests slightly confused and even more enamored with him. He even claimed that he was a direct descendant of Count St. Germain from Louis XV's court. Some guests would compare portraits of the Count with Jacques; they were positive that he must be related since he looked nearly identical. They were even roughly the same age. Jacques would neither confirm nor deny being the Count. This simply led to more mystery to his person.<br />
<br />
Jacques' parties were highly sought after, but several people noted that he never partook in dining with his guests. He simply entertained as they dined and always drank from a rather fancy chalice, presumably filled with wine.<br />
<br />
Bloody turn of events. The following is taken from <a href="https://www.ancient-origins.net/unexplained-phenomena/vampire-new-orleans-mysterious-case-jacque-and-comte-de-st-germain-009019">Ancient Origins</a>.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
These rumors took a sinister turn several months after St. Germain’s arrival to New Orleans, when the police were called to St. Germain’s home to investigate the circumstances leading to a woman who had seemingly fallen from his gallery, a full story above.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
His guest, a woman who was rumored to have been a prostitute, had in fact leapt from his balcony, rather than fallen, as bystanders had originally surmised. While she survived the fall, she was terrified. People on the street surrounded her and tended to her needs while help was rounded. Hysterical, the woman ranted that she had jumped to escape St. Germain, who had bitten her neck. She screamed and sobbed out her story, claiming she was only able to escape when her assailant was briefly distracted by a rather loud knocking on his door.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The woman was taken to the hospital as soon as possible, and the police, suspecting that she had become delusional, told the very well-known, affluent, and respected St. Germain not to bother coming in for questioning at this late hour, but rather to please visit the police station in the morning to go over the accounts of the evening. The police were confident that there was a reasonable explanation for what had transpired.<br />
The next morning, St. Germain never appeared at the police station. In fact, to everyone’s chagrin, he had completely vanished overnight, leaving the majority of his belongings behind.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Legend suggests that upon breaking into his house, the police were cautious and in great anticipation of what they might encounter. On the second floor of the house they discovered a series of open but corked wine bottles. Upon closer investigation, they discovered the large collection of bottles were filled with a terrifying mixture of wine along with large quantities of human blood.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Jacque St. Germain was never seen again. He disappeared just as mysteriously as he had arrived. As one can only imagine, his contemporaries were shocked at this scandal, feeling both betrayed and fooled, and probably a little disappointed that the fun had come to an end.</blockquote>
<br />
According to Michael Murphy's book <i>Fear Dat New Orleans</i>, there are ongoing sightings of "Vampire Jack" in New Orleans. In 1933, the NOLA police were called to Royal Street where for two consecutive nights women were found with their throats torn out and they were drained of blood. A witness claims to have seen the man scale a 12-foot tall wall effortlessly to make his escape.<br />
<br />
If you care to listen to a podcast on Jacques Saint Germain, you can listen to: <a href="http://www.campfirefiles.com/episodes/2018/4/2/ep-12-real-life-vampire-jacques-st-germain">Campfire Files, Episode 12. Real-Life Vampire, Jacques St. Germain</a> (time 51:08) I'm not super impressed with this podcast, but whatever...it's entertaining.<br />
<br />
If you're interested in obscure French books, you can find a handful of books written by Jacques Saint Germain from the 1960s and 1970s. You can find stuff on Abebooks.com and Amazon.com<br />

<br />
<br />
Could there be ties between this author, the Jacques St.Germain from New Orleans, and the Count?<br />
<br />
I have some of these books ordered, so expect a part 2. I have not been able to come across any photos, drawings, or paintings of Jacques/Jacque Saint-Germain/St. Germain. Perhaps there is something in the books I have coming. There are handwriting samples that we will be able to compare.<br />
<br />
I find it very curious that Jacques Saint Germain's books topics are spot on with the Count's knowledge base. The only thing that could make it more perfect would be a book on textile manufacturing in the 18th century.<br />
<br />
I will see what I can dig up. If you come across anything, please send me an email!<br />

<br />
I typically do my research on Saturday mornings at a local cafe called Venue. I'm there almost every weekend and it's become a weekend ritual. I love it - no dogs, no one to bother me, nothing except the research. It's surprising how much you can get done in an hour and with two dry cappuccinos. One thing that I am adamant on during these morning research sessions is the lack of screens, with the exception of my phone.<br />
<br />
What's on my playlist in the photo? Sisters of Mercy's album "Floodland". It's one of my favorites.<br />
<br />
As you can see in the photo, the book I'm going through (for the hundredth time) is:<br />
Overton Fuller, Jean.<i> The Comte de Saint-Germain. Last Scion of the House of Rakoczy</i>. East-West Publications; London, 1988.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What kind of information am I looking for? </div>
<div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><b>Tendrils</b>. Little things that don't have much information listed, but might be an interesting path to follow. Examples: particular jewels, mentions of communications between people, art, music, etc. At this point, no one has uncovered any of the Count's artwork, that I know of, but it is frequently mentioned. That's a tendril. </li>
<li><b>Places of Interest.</b> If I'm going to plan a trip to Europe to do research, I need to make notations about places of interest. This could be places where the Count lived, places of historical value towards my research, places that hold artifacts, etc.</li>
<li><b>Names & People Known.</b> I always make note of names the Count used and people the Count knew. Sometimes the best way to know someone is to see who they associate with.</li>
</ul>
<div>
My bibliography - I feel like I need to say this due to a lot of the emails that I get. If there is something listed in my bibliography, I have it (either physically or digitally) and have read it - the exception being all the music. Chances are I have gone through it a number of times. I am always looking for new reference material, especially primary sources.</div>

I love getting a response from people and would like to give a shout out to Tom Slemen (who mentioned some new info, but hasn't shared yet - <a href="https://twitter.com/TomSlemen">twitter</a>) and Scott Vincent (who produced <br /><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Comte-St-Germain-Musique-Raisonn%C3%A9e/dp/B006OJJSE0/ref=sr_1_1?s=dmusic&ie=UTF8&qid=1518986746&sr=1-1-mp3-albums-bar-strip-0&keywords=st.germain">Comte de St. Germain: Musique Raisonnée</a>).

It is said that the Count might have been, or might have used the name, Simon Wolff Brandes. This is a watercolor piece sent to Frederick I as a congrats for his coronation from 1701. Currently, no one has recovered any of the Count's artworks.</div>

I've been playing around with a police sketch app called PortraitPad. Using the portraits of the Count as a guide, I've been trying to get a mock-up of what he might look like without the powdered wig. I tried a bunch of different hairstyles that look fairly conservative. I don't think I found the right eyebrows.<br />
<br />
What do you like? What do you dislike?<br />
<br />
If you want to use PortraitPad to give this a try, you can send me your best results! Here is my <a href="mailto:jessiedesmond@rocketmail.com">EMAIL</a>. Be sure to check out the GALLERY for historic portraits of the Count.<br />

I have a new section in the bibliography for odd books. These are books that aren't primary sources, but we might be able to gather a little about the Count from them.<br />
<br />
I really just created the section for a book called <i>Zanoni</i>.<br />
<br />
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward. <i>Zanoni</i>. Saunders & Oatley; London, 1842. 2008 reprint.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I bought a physical copy from Forgotten Books, but you can read a free copy from <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/files/2664/2664-h/2664-h.htm">Project Gutenberg</a>.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here is the blurb about the book from wikipedia:</div>
"Zanoni, a timeless Rosicrucian brother, cannot fall in love without losing his power of immortality; but he does fall in love with Viola Pisani, a promising young opera singer from Naples, the daughter of Pisani, a misunderstood Italian violinist. An English gentleman named Glyndon loves Viola as well, but is indecisive about proposing marriage, and then renounces his love to pursue occult study. The story develops in the days of the French Revolution in 1789. Zanoni has lived since the Chaldean civilisation. His master Mejnor warns him against a love affair but Zanoni does not heed. He finally marries Viola and they have a child. As Zanoni experiences an increase in humanity, he begins to lose his gift of immortality. He finally dies in the guillotine during the French Revolution."<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Rumor is Bulwer-Lytton based Zanoni on the Count! That is why I now own this book. I haven't read it yet. I have so much to get through, but I will read this book soon.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It would be cool to have a book discussion on this book. If you're interested, let me know. It'll be like a book club. I'll probably start reading in February. Just leave me a comment below or find me on facebook. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/jessie.desmond">My facebook</a>.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I would also like to have some group discussions on <i>The Most Holy Saint Trinosophie</i>.</div>

I was sent this photo by O.M. who provided me with the information: "This was painted in 1759. The Count was using the name Count Gronsveld. It's in the small porcelain museum in the mayor's office in Weesp, Holland."<br />
<br />
I went searching on the web, since I can't just make a trip half way around the world right now.<br />
<br />
I looked up Weesp and I went to the address that is stamped on the picture.<br />
<br />"Bertram Philip Sigismund Albrecht of HRR Empire Graaf Van Gronsveld Diepenbroick Impel (1715-1772) The portrait was painted by GJJ the Spinny in 1759" is listed <a href="http://amstelveenweb.com/fotodisp&fotodisp=643">HERE</a>.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sorry O.M., but this is a portrait of Bertram Philip Sigismund Albrecht - just as it states. Everything that I come across points to this.</div>

<br />
Blurb: There seems to be no doubt that the Count of Saint Germain existed, but how did he exist and for how long? There are levels to the incredulity of his story. It seems unlikely that one individual could possess so many varied talents, but the Count’s most unlikely talent was living into his 80s while still looking to be in his 50s. If you’re willing to go even further and believe the accounts of some of his contemporaries, then the Count was over 100 years old and lived well into the 19th century. Impossible you say? Then you might have even more trouble believing what many of those who had studied under him and some that continue to study his life believe, that the Count may have been hundreds or even thousands of years old, knew the ancient wisdom and secrets of life, and practiced the lost arts known only to the most enlightened beings. Whatever you choose to believe, a strong argument could be made that in his time and long after, he was actually the real “most interesting man in the world.”</div>

Blurb: If you wished you could do all the things the Count of Saint Germain could do, meet all the people he had met, and learn all the secrets of life he seemed to possess, and on top of it all, have several lifetimes to employ your skills, what then? The question is, what would you do with these gifts? Would you be content to merely be the life of the party, or would you try and make a difference in the affairs of nations and enlighten humanity, even if it cost you your freedom or your once immortal life? Depending on your answer, the bigger question might be, does it take the right person to seek the mysteries, or do the mysteries seek the right person?</div>

<b>Andreas Rill</b>, born October 5, 1880 in Weil Landsberg Bayern (Bavaria).<br />
<br />
Fought in WWI in the Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 12 (Neuburg/Donau).<br />
<br />
Survived WWI and WWII, as telephone directory listings from the 50s and 60s have been found. No death certificate found, but telephone listings were for Landsberg, Germany. Appears that he remained in the same city that he was born in.<br />
<br />

<b>Freemason Lodge in Colmar, Alsace, France.</b><br />
<br />
According to the article "<a href="http://www.masonicworld.com/education/articles/Masonry-and-the-statue-of-liberty.htm">Masonry & The Statue of Liberty</a>", Frederic Auguste Bartholdi was an artist who was associated with the Freemason Lodge in Colmar and he designed the Statue of Liberty.<br />
<br />
I'm not 100% sure on this, but I am leaning towards ties to <a href="http://www.godf.org/index.php/accueil/index/liens/accueil/nom/Accueil">Grand Orient de France</a>. There are a few different types of freemasons cloistered in the same area.<br />
<br />
------------------<br />
<b>Capuchin Monastery at Sigolsheim, Alsace, France</b><br />
<br />
Currently there is no Capuchin Monastery in Sigolsheim. The closest Capuchin Monastery is in Luzern, Switzerland, 108 miles away. <br />
<br />
Capuchin Website: h<a href="ttps://www.ofmcap.org/">ttps://www.ofmcap.org/</a><br />
<br />
There is the Church of St.Peter and St.Paul in Sigolsheim. It's been a national landmark since 1841. Possible former Capuchin Monastery? Still checking on this.<br />

<b>Another Faked Death?</b><br />
<br />
Frater Laicus Tertiarius translates to "Tertiary Lay Brother". This was the "name" given to Rill, but it is not a name. It is a position. A "lay brother" is a brother to the church, but is not ordained as a cleric (like a priest or a seminarian).<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The man Rill talked to in 1914 was reported to have died in 1917, one year before Rill made an attempt to make contact with him.<br /><br /></div>

On the timeline, you will note that there is one entry made during WWI in 1914.<br />
<br />
<b>August 1914</b> - During WWI, two Bavarian soldiers captured a
Jewish-looking man in Alsace. During the all-night interrogation, the
prisoner of war stubbornly refused to give his name. Suddenly, in the
early hours of the morning, the unidentified Frenchman got very
irritable and started to rant about the futility of the war. He told
his captors, "Throw down your guns! The war will end in 1918 with
defeat for the German nation and her allies!" One of the soldiers,
Andreas Rill, laughed at the prisoner's words. He thought that the man
was merely expressing the hopes of every Frenchman, but he was
intrigued by the prisoner's other prophecies..."Everyone will be a
millionaire after the war! There will be so much money in circulation,
people will throw it from windows and no one will bother to pick it up.
You will need to carry it around in wheelbarrows to buy a loaf!" the
Frenchman predicted. Was he referring to the rampant inflation of
post-WWI Germany? The soldiers scoffed at the prediction. They let the
prophet ramble on. He gave them more future-history lessons: "After the
confetti money will come the Antichrist. A tyrant from the lower
classes who will wear an ancient symbol. He will lead Germany into
another global war in 1939, but will be defeated six years on after
doing inhuman, unspeakable things. The Frenchman then started to
become incoherent. He started to sing, then began to sob. Thinking he
was mad, the soldiers decided to let him go, and he disappeared back
into obscurity. His identity is still unknown.<br />
<br />
Let's pull some information from this - which I should mention comes from Tom Slemen's book <i>Strange, But True</i>.<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Bavarian soldiers - one named Andreas Rill.</li>
<li>Alsace, France</li>
<li>Predictions of the near future</li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>Who is Andreas Rill?</b><br />
In an article called "<a href="http://www.messagetoeagle.com/mystery-of-andreas-rill-was-he-a-time-traveler-holy-man-or-an-unidentified-prophet-in-disguise/">Mystery of Andreas Rill: Was He A Time Traveler, Holy Man Or An Unidentified Prophet In Disguise?</a>" we have a platform to start from. I want to make note that this article isn't the best resource, but it does provide some options to start better research.<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>In August 1914, Andreas Rill, a carpenter from Bavaria, Germany wrote
two letters to his family. Rill was on active service in Alsace, in the
north-east corner of France. CHECK MILITARY RECORDS.</li>
<li>Criminology experts of the Freiburg Institute for Border Areas of
Psychology and Mental Hygiene testified that the two letters of Andreas
Rill <i>were authentic</i> and no even a detail in them was altered
after they were written. They contained true words of the unidentified
French prisoner, but no one was able to establish the true identity of
the mysterious prophet, whose prediction began to be fulfilled one after
another. CHECK FOR THESE EXPERTS.</li>
<li>It took some years of hard efforts to uncover the visionary man.
Andreas Rill’s sons suggested that the mysterious prophet once captured
by their father, was a very rich man who belonged to a Freemason’s Lodge
in Colmar, Alsace, France and decided to give away all his possessions
to join a monastery in Alsace. CHECK FREEMASON LODGE IN COLMAR.</li>
<li>Finally, the search for the identity of the mysterious man led to an
old Capuchin monastery at Sigolsheim, Alsace, France, built in the 1600s
and located only 10 km (6 miles) from Colmar, the seat of a Freemason’s
Lodge. CHECK CAPUCHIN MONASTERY.</li>
<li>A man whose name was Frater Laicus Tertiarius, lived as a guest there
and died in 1917. Andreas Rill who had captured the French prophet in
1914 and later in 1918, apparently tried to contact the former prisoner,
but was told he had died. CHECK FRATER LAICUS TERTIARUS. THE NAME TRANSLATES TO "Tertiary Lay Brother".</li>
</ul>
<br />
Through Ancestry.com I have found Andreas Rill listed in a Bavarian WWI personnel roster.<br />

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"This theory held by Gorg Hezekiel in his Abenteuerliche Gesellen, i., 35, Berlin, 1862. Karl von Weber (op. cit., i., 318) also says that M. de St. Germain openy appeared in Leipzig in 1777 as Prince Ragoczy, and that he was often known as Graf Tzarogy, which latter is merely an anagram for Ragotzy (Ragoczy)."</blockquote>

Can they play a musical instrument? Do they speak a foreign language? Are they a fine art painter? Have they traveled the world? Are they descended from royalty? Sure, maybe only a couple of those. But what if they were a concert level violinist who could also compose music? What if they could speak ten languages or more? What if it seemed they could produce precious gemstones and on top of that, were a military tactician who brokered diplomacy between nations? Impossible you say, for all of these talents and accomplishments to be contained within one individual? And yet all of these are the qualities and accomplishments claimed to be witnessed by the contemporaries of the man known mostly as the Count of Saint Germain. He was known by many names and for his many remarkable feats, but perhaps his most astounding accomplishment, as more than a few would claim, was to remain alive for several generations from the 18th century or earlier, into the 19th century and maybe even to this day.<div>
