Meres, Francis (1565-1647) was briefly an author and commentator on the London literary scene; primarily a rural minister and schoolmaster.

 BBC NEWS Entertainment Arts Row over Shakespeare name claim
De Vere was much better educated, had travelled widely and was a member of Elizabeth I's court, it says, and the "historical" Shakespeare we know of came from a more modest upbringing.
The De Vere Society is marking the 400th anniversary of the death of Elizabethan nobleman Edward de Vere, who it says is the "real Shakespeare".
Prof Wells said de Vere had led a "busy life" and he found it hard to believe the earl had managed to write so many "masterpieces" at the same time.

In 1584 his Catholic nephew Francis Throckmorton was executed for treason which is an indication that his family was caught up in the Protestant and Catholic conflict of the time.
Sir John’s premature death in 1580 precipitated his two sons Francis and Thomas, into joining a Catholic conspiracy between 1580-3, which resulted in Francis being executed for treason in July 1584, and Thomas exiled for life.
Throughout his life Puttenham had to conceal his name as a writer because his Catholic family was involved in the bitter religious conflict with Protestant and Puritan church leaders, which reached a climax in 1584 when his Catholic nephew Francis Throckmorton was executed for treason.

Yet I believe that William Shakspur, the earl of Oxford, Sir Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, the earl of Rutland, and every other proposed author I am familiar with is disqualified for good reason, and that the earl of Derby has not been disqualified.
Note: I use the masculine "he" and "him" when referring to the unknown author of the works of Shake-speare because I find the most convincing candidates to be men.

 The Shakespeare Mystery
Currently, Edward de Vere, the Seventeenth Earl of Oxford, is the leading contender for the Bard's throne.
How could de Vere be Shakespeare if he died before many of the plays were first published or performed?
First, "Stratfordians" are those who argue that William Shakespeare is the Bard, while "Oxfordians" support Edward de Vere.

 Gwynneth Bowen - Sir Edward Vere and His Mother, Anne Vavasor
All this is well known to historians, but though the "fighting Veres," Sir Francis and Sir Horace, were first cousins of Edward de Vere Earl of Oxford, and Sir Edward is generally assumed to be their kinsman, his parentage remains a mystery—or did till the 1940's, and still does to all but a few.
Young Edward Vere turns up, for the first time under that name, in his fifteenth year, at the University of Leyden, and it was two or three years later that he began his military career with the English forces in the Netherlands, under the command of his father's cousin, Sir Francis.
SIR EDWARD VERE, knighted by James I in 1607, was a distinguished soldier.

Enlisting the support of then Queensland Premier Sir Francis Nicklin he came up with the name Sunshine Coast for the three shires of Caloundra, Maroochy and Noosa in 1966 and then initiated the tourism industry.
Not to be forgotten is long-serving former Maroochy Shire chairman, the late Eddie De Vere, who is credited with inspiring the name change from North Coast to Sunshine Coast.
In July 1967, he prophetically told the Mooloolaba-Alexandra Headland Progress Association that tourism had the greatest potential of any industry in the shire.

 Movie Database - [TV Guide Online]
And it's persistent one: For years "Baconians" have insisted that the man behind the curtain was really the philosopher Sir Francis Bacon, while "Oxfordians" now claim he's Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford.
But the prime suspect has long been playwright Christopher Marlowe, who was born in 1564 — the same year as Shakespeare — and stabbed to death in 1593, shortly before the name "William Shakespeare" appears in print for the very first time.
His death, "Marlovians" argue, was obviously faked; Marlowe was a heretic who needed to be spirited out of the country before he could be dragged before the dreaded Star Chamber.

Francis Lovell is the shadow-man of Richard's triumvirs, even his birthdate is not known with any certainty, though it was undoubtedly between November 1455 and February 1456.
The early years of Francis Lovell's training for knighthood were, therefore, spent in the nerve-centre of Warwick's plotting to maintain his supremacy in the ruling of England, contrary to the ideas of his former pupil and cousin, Edward IV.
Ten years prior to the downfall of the White Rose, Francis Lovell, having attained his majority, petitioned King Edward for the return of his estates and this was granted on November 7th of 1477.
