Six degrees of Francis Bacon

[Guest Ryan Murtha]

This website allows you to search for the names of Bacon's contemporaries and see a bit of the social network.

It is a fun tool. But over time I have found it lacks a lot of connections. We can't blame the website, they provide a great tool. But it is on US to feed it with what we know. Do any of us contribute here? Can't say I ever have. I have searched a few of Bacon's connections and nobody has added them yet. That is on us, not the website.

For instance, "Jaggard" comes up with no Bacon connections. Yet he was totally connected to the Jaggards.

In fact, "Tudor" comes up with no connections, but "Elizabeth I" matches with "Queen Elizabeth I."

I thought the same thing many times, "What gives? there's a connection here for sure." And wondered if it was accidental or not. ??
