You may be surprised to know that there is an unexpected link between the Voynich MS and the house of York. This is related to the secret sale of the MS to Voynich. His colleague book dealer Tammaro de Marinis was one of the very few who knew some of the details of this sale.
He wrote in 1947 (17 years after the death of Voynich), that the selection of books acquired by Voynich originate from the collection of: "Henry Benedict Stuart, Cardinal of York, Bishop of Frascati, passionate collector of manuscripts".
Now before anyone gets excited about this: what he wrote may or may not be true, but either way it is just a coincidence.
Cardinal Henry Stuart has nothing to do with the House of York, whih died out with Richard III in 1485, as second son of king James he has the traditionalt title of Duke of York, he is Duke of York, cardinal bishop of Frascati (first son: Prince of Wales, second son: Duke of York, that is so even nowadays)
