Quest for Francis Bacon's Sacred Treasure Vaults

Throughout the ages, men and women have been anointed with the sacred task of preserving, protecting and often, ‘hiding in plain sight,’ original documents of ancient wisdom, historical archives and the treasures of the advanced civilizations of centuries long passed. Utilizing intricate coding and ciphering systems, brilliant messages of the past laid a pathway of discovery for those individuals and small groups who were sensitive and receptive to an “inner” prompting to undertake this unique journey of discovery. Through diligent purification of the human being, extraordinary dedication of study and practice and the willingness to persevere in spite of obstacles and challenges to the contrary, great strides have been made in the 20^th and 21^st centuries to once again reveal the locations and contents of many of these sacred vaults in America and throughout the world.

Four centuries after his birth in York Place, England; January 22, 1561: Sir Francis Bacon continues to influence the great vision for the founding of America and the original precepts upon which this nation was built.

Although never officially acknowledged by his mother Queen Elizabeth I and her husband Robert (Dudley) Tudor, young Francis displays an innate genius in all areas of endeavor and blossoms under the loving tutelage of his ‘appointed and adopted parents,’ Sir Nicholas and Lady Anne Bacon. Mature beyond his years, Francis Bacon, unknowingly the heir to the throne, quickly excels in the arts, letters, science, philosophy and statesmanship and develops intricate new ciphering systems. Kind of heart, witty and uniquely intuitive, young Francis, ever observant of the surrounding political and religious corruption and dramatic social iniquities, begins to formulate a new vision for a free and democratic society. Herein all mankind would have access to knowledge, to study the visible and invisible worlds and help “create a higher standard of living, better homes, healthier bodies, nobler minds and more highly attuned souls.”[1] This vision would become known as New Atlantis and its ideals and precepts will assist in laying the groundwork for America’s democratic form of government.

This remarkable young man had early in life attracted a cadre of loyal colleagues, friends and students. These brilliant men and women, known as his “Good Pens,” included such luminaries as Christopher Marlowe, Ben Jonson, Edmund Spenser, Sir Tobie Matthew, Sir Walter Raleigh, Francis Drake, Lancelot Andrews and Sir Thomas Meautys. Keenly aware of the dangers of publishing under his own name, The Good Pens lend their names to many of Bacon’s works and purchase permission to use the names of others. Thus, one of the grandest nom de plumes is born – William Shake-speare and the controversial literary pretender, poacher, horse handler and minor actor William Shagspur is paid to play the part.[2] Together The Good Pens create an extraordinary body of literature, historical and philosophical writings including the addition of over 20,000 words to a new English language taught to the masses for the first time through their plays. To aid in their communications and studies, many documents, including the Shakespeare Folio of 1623, contain intricate encoded writings that utilize pagination and print ‘errors’, watermarks, numerical key codes and the like securing historical documentation and ongoing instruction to current and future generations in the advanced teachings of philosophy, governance, science, education and metaphysics. [3]

Along with Bacon’s own travels, the “Good Pens” were dispatched to the countries of the Old World to record historical events, secure sacred documents and artifacts which provided endless sources of literary and historical material later woven into the story lines of their many plays, sonnets and philosophical writings. These sacred materials were secured in underground vaults and libraries built as sanctuaries for study, meeting and writing for Bacon’s disciples throughout the ages.

As Bacon continues to grow in public popularity in 17^th century England he becomes known as an outstanding orator and wise counselor and advances to the House of Commons until the death of his mother the Queen. Unwilling to name Francis as her successor, King James of Scotland comes to the throne and Bacon’s life becomes even more precarious. James, aware of Bacon’s true Tudor heritage and rights to the throne, secures a promise that Francis would marry a commoner, thus eliminating any chance of his heirs challenging the King. He becomes the secret editor of the 1611 translation of the bible and continues to rise in governmental authority. Widely regarded as an exceptional judge and statesman, Bacon becomes Attorney General and then Lord Chancellor of England and is eventually knighted as Baron of Verulam and Viscount St. Alban. But long-standing jealousies of political rivals and court intrigue conspire to eliminate him from all posts and, in a still controversial set of accusations, Bacon is sent to the Tower. Subsequently released by the King he returns to writing and teaching and supposedly dies on Easter Sunday 1626 as a result of a scientific experiment.

However, there is a large body of evidence that Sir Francis Bacon feigned his death on Resurrection Day and appeared at his funeral dressed as a woman. Ever the Master of the Muse, he is now free to live unfettered by the political intrigues of his native England. Acknowledging that he and his colleagues have accomplished as much as possible in assisting the revitalization of knowledge, literature, education, philosophy and science in England, they still hold to an inspired vision of a democratic society supported by an educated citizenry and look to more fertile and untouched lands – the New World. Under Bacon’s guidance, the New Atlantis program would be transferred to the shores of what would become the American colonies. Carefully and systematically their collection of sacred documents, historical records, original literary works, artifacts, jewels and gold were relocated to the new Jamestown colony.

Ever mindful of the need for secrecy and with a precise sense of Divine Timing, trained members of the "Good Pens" accompanied these sacred treasures across the seas as a legacy for New Atlantis – the emerging American colonies. Henry Blount, a descendent of the same family lineage as that of Sir Francis Bacon, adopts the name Nathaniel Bacon the Elder upon arrival in the Virginia colony and oversees the transfer of these treasures and relocation of his fellow “Pens.” Originally concealed in a vault in the Jamestown church, this unprecedented legacy to the American people is moved prior to the Bacon Rebellion to its final resting place, in the Bruton Parish Churchyard in Williamsburg, Virginia. Secured in a ten by ten foot brick cube, twenty feet underground in a Freemasonry vault, this remarkable treasure safely rests in thirty-three copper cylinders and surrounding tombs. The greatest cypherer of the ages encoded each of these tabletop tombs with complex cryptograms, describing the location of the vault, and placed them in plain site of the viewing public in the churchyard. These magnificent works of art and ingenious Baconian ciphers were designed in England and transferred to the Virginia colony as guideposts for those who were courageous, ingenious and anointed to read Bacon’s handiwork from across the centuries to raise the vault once more and bring the contents before the American people. Additionally, Bacon, his colleagues and their descendents, secure a total of 144 of these Freemasonry vaults throughout the new American continent.

Included in the Bruton vault is physical evidence of the true lineage of the English monarchy, prototype copies of the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, the “lost” writings of Shakespeare/Sir Francis Bacon, an original copy of the 1611 King James Bible, the location of all other vaults sealed within America and in each nation as well as gemstones, rare coins, and gold to be used to ensure public access to these treasures and assist the local communities surrounding each vault. Just as remarkable is the fact that America’s most noted Freemasons – Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Henry, Adams, Hancock and the Founding Mothers, who gained access through three underground tunnels, studied these documents on a regular basis. Even the land continues to be secured through private land deeds in the possession of ancestral families – an oasis of private land on a national historic site. The vault amazingly continues to remain protected having withstood various attempts to publicly and surreptitiously unearth its contents for private collections.

For over 300 years, these 33 copper cylinders laid in glorious expectation awaiting divine timing and the determined and inspired ability of someone to decode the complex cryptograms in the churchyard. This occurred in the early 1900s, when noted philosopher, scholar and metaphysician Manly P. Hall, along with a group of dedicated students, began the task of deciphering these intricate Baconian codes leading to the arrival of Marie Bauer in 1938 in Williamsburg.

Diligently, with exacting precision, patience, inspired deciphering techniques and months of research (including a remarkable book written prior to the securing of documents in the vault), Ms. Bauer was able to unearth for the first time since the early 1600s, the original foundations of the Bruton Parish Church. However, this astounding historical accomplishment met with tremendous, and unexpected, resistance and no sooner had the foundations been revealed, they were buried again in the night unbeknownst to Ms. Bauer. Just as mysteriously, four small stone markers appeared at the corners of these original church foundations.^[4] Using advanced detection equipment for that timeframe, equipotential surveys concluded, “All factors being considered, the results obtained are sufficiently indicative of the possible presence of a hidden Vault, three-quarters filled, to warrant excavating a trench to prove or disprove its existence.” [5] Yet, to this day, outside of an illegal and unauthorized dig in the churchyard on September 9, 1991, no public request for a legitimate, open bid excavation of the Bruton Vault has been granted by church officials or Colonial Williamsburg Restoration.

Over the past centuries and most recently decades, small, dedicated groups have been able to identify the location of approximately 121 of these sacred 144 vaults placed throughout America. Yet, all await the unveiling of the majestic legacy to America - the Bruton Vault known as the real National Treasure belonging to God on behalf of the American People – the true Great Seventh Seal located at Bruton Parish Church in Williamsburg, Virginia. It is believed that “God will use a voice, which sometimes He useth, that is, Vox Populi – the Speech of the people.”[6] to request its revelations be brought once again into the Light of day.

Towards this end, Sir Francis Bacon’s Sages of the Seventh Seal are commencing a grassroots, public education dialogue regarding the life of this remarkable individual and the legacy of these vaults left to the American people. With over eighteen years of documented research reaching back through the centuries, contact has been made with a number of historians, scientists, mining prospectors and journalists who have discovered similar vault sites and ancient writings relating to such hidden treasure. Media contacts are being pursued to bring forth this exciting historical tale through newspaper and magazine stories, screenplays, documentaries and radio and television interviews.
