Send in anything relating to Count St.Germain!


I've noticed a few references to the Count being part of the British Kit-Cat Club.  The club met in various locations in and out of London.  I found that Bloomsbury Bytes provides some good information, including this little tidbit:

“It was a rule of the club that members should have their portraits painted. Jacob Tonson, the famous bookseller, created the club and became its secretary. He made it a weekly gathering of litterateurs, whom he entertained with pies, making it a condition that his guests should sell him their manuscripts. Jonson started the portraiture and had his own picture painted by Sir Godfrey Kneller, the rest following suit. Jonson built a picture gallery as an addition to his villa at Barn Elms. The room was not large enough to take in half-length canvases, and a special size of portrait was invented, 36 inches by 28 inches, and the club became the sponsor of the Kit-Kat canvas, the name which still survives.” (Griffiths, p. 15).

I'm going to start looking for a portrait and possibly some writings.

Life Before "The Count"...

There are a few different theories out there as to who Count St.Germain could have been before he arrived on the European scene in the 18th C as Count St.Germain.

Roger Bacon

• Bacon to St.Germaine

From the Rakoczy Family

•  Legend of St.Germain
• Comte de Saint-Germain 

The Wandering Jew

• Count of St.Germain: The Real Doctor Who? 

Last of the Medici's

• Theory put forth by Caesare Cantu, librarian at Milan, who also claimed that St.Germain went to school at the University of Sienna.

Am I missing any theories?  I feel like I'm missing one.  Anyway...here are the three main ones that I know of with informational links.  Send me any info on other theories.  I have a half-baked idea of my own that I can't honestly say that I believe, but its not out of the realm of possibility.  Should I share it?  Let me know.

This is a paper I wrote in 2011 for an independent study course.  Don't steal it.  Only disrespectful people steal stuff.

You will also notice a visual list that I've started of the Count's friends and acquaintances.
