Francis Bacon was supposedly the illegitimate son <strong>of</strong> Queen Eliza-<br />

beth and her lover Sir Robert Dudley, Earl <strong>of</strong> Leicester. Francis Bacon<br />

who was highly educated, well-read and had travelled a great deal,<br />

must also be regarded as the true author <strong>of</strong> the illiterate William<br />

Shakespeare's plays and sonnets. This has been shown through secret<br />

codes, which Bacon used in all his works, including, those published<br />

under the name <strong>of</strong> William Shakespeare, as described in the works <strong>of</strong><br />

the freemason Manly P. Hall.<br />

In 1641, the chemist, mathematician and General Robert Moray be-<br />

came a freemason in the Edenroth Lodge in Newcastle. He was the<br />

first well-known scholar to be accepted as a member <strong>of</strong> a craft guild,<br />

according to the remaining documentation. <strong>The</strong> alchemist, astrologer<br />

and occultist Elias Ashmole became a freemason in Warrington on 16<br />

October 1646, as did the cabbalist Robert Boyle (1627-1691), who<br />

performed research in chemistry and physics. Elias Ashmole belonged<br />

to the Association <strong>of</strong> Astrologers. Many members <strong>of</strong> this association<br />

became freemasons. Robert Boyle was grand master <strong>of</strong> the secret<br />

Prieure de Sion between 1654 and 1691. Sir Christopher Wren (1632-<br />

1723), the astronomer and architect, who designed St. Paul's Cathe-<br />

dral and drew the plans for the rebuilding <strong>of</strong> London after the Great<br />

Fire <strong>of</strong> 1666, was initiated into Lodge Original No. 1 in London on 18<br />

May 1691 (Bernard E. Jones, "Freemasons' Guide and Compendium",<br />

London, 1950, p. 111). He became the last grand master from the<br />

ranks <strong>of</strong> active freemasons that actually were builders and craftsmen.<br />

<strong>The</strong> aforementioned individuals founded <strong>The</strong> Invisible College on<br />

28 November 1660. <strong>The</strong> Royal Society <strong>of</strong> London grew out <strong>of</strong> this<br />

movement in 1662. Francis Bacon (1561-1626) was named their<br />

"patron saint". Christopher Wren became president <strong>of</strong> the Royal<br />

Society in 1680. Isaac Newton (1642-1727), who was greatly inte-<br />

rested in astrology and alchemy, became a freemason in 1672 despite<br />

the fact that he was not a builder but was instead regarded as a<br />

scientist, and in 1703 was elected president <strong>of</strong> the Royal Society. <strong>The</strong><br />

most important reason was that he was grand master <strong>of</strong> the Prieure<br />

de Sion (1691-1727), which did everything in its <strong>power</strong> to infiltrate<br />
