Honoring our ancestors one person at a time.
1550 - 1604 (54 years)Susan and Edward de Vere
Lady Susan de Vere, Countess of Montgomery was the Producer and ‘Grand Possessor’ of the First Folio (1623) the collected works of ‘William Shake-speare’, the pen-name of her father Elizabethan courtier, poet, and playwright Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford. Considering that there is more shelf space in any book store or library and more movies on Shakespeare than any other subject, that makes Susan de Vere the most important person in history. Yet she has been totally rubbed out of the picture by the elitist snobs of the Stratford Sham Industry. Until we came along there was no book, no Wikipedia page, no documentary, no movie, about this very resourceful women, who despite the social constraints of the time, cunningly figured out a way to send us the ultimate ‘message in a bottle’. Still unpublished before Susan de Vere’s First Folio and otherwise lost to posterity, were: » Macbeth » Hamlet (new version) » The Comedy of Errors » The Taming of the Shrew » The Two Gentlemen of Verona » As You Like It » Twelfth Night » All’s Well That Ends Well » Measure for Measure » Henry VI, Part I » King John » Henry VIII » Julius Caesar » Anthony and Cleopatra » Timon of Athens » The Winter’s Tale » The Two Noble Kinsmen » Cymbeline » Coriolanus, and last but not least » The Tempest
