The humble and lovable Eugene Canseliet was under the impression that the 
Big F didn't "attain the Gift of God" until sometime this century, so 
if Fulcanelli did the St Germain gig, either (a) he bootstrapped from 
another alchemist (b) he sustained himself through intermediary alchemical 
works or (c) he was just naturally extremely healthy.

Or Canseliet is not reliable here.

Actually, it's easy enough to date the Big F, but I don't know if 
anyone has bothered to read the texts carefully enough to do so. At one 
time there was a six-story house on the corner of Blvd Pereire and the Rue 
de Monbel in Paris. Since he mentions that he saw this house being 
built (during his alchemical career, which would have made him 30+), 
if it was built before around 1860, you've got some Puzzling Evidence.

Otherwise, of course, the mystery remains.

Meanwhile, his loathing of the 18th century, heyday of the Count, is 
well documented.
