He wrote about the 16th century because he was born in 1564 - 1616 There is very little evidence about Shakespeare's life, but most historians agree that he began writing around 1590, and he retired in 1613.
It's the general information you get after reading a few books about Shakespeare's life, the history of the Tudors and 16th and 17th century lifestyle.

No. For most of his life, Shakespeare lived in London while his wife and children lived in Stratford.
We know almost nothing about Shakespeare's early life, but sometime in the 1580's he seems to arrive in London and begin to work as a playwright. We do not know whether he traveled to London from Stratford upon Avon, where he grew up, or whether he had lived somewhere else in the meantime.
This site is not well-adapted to show you things. Google Image Tudor People and you will get a nice selection of people from the 16th century, during which Shakespeare spent most of his life.

Yes he does. This is because Nat Field of the 16th century has the bubonic plague otherwise known as "Black Death" which is impossibly incurable at that time. His namesake, Nat Field, of modern times is an actor of Shakespeare's plays. Somehow, both Nat's switch places and 16th century Nat's bubonic plague is easily cured while modern Nat performs a play with Shakespeare who becomes almost like his missing father figure in his life. The King of Shadows by Susan Cooper is a genius idea of a story and it is filled with action and adventure. :)
