This is a conspiracy theory I had in middle School. Hamilton threw away his shot becuase the Federalists had no chance to recover with him after the Reynolds Pamphlet but he could wound the Democratic Republicans by making the VP Burr a murderer and himself a martyr of the Federalists. My...

In May 1802, Vice President Aaron Burr of New York saw his Grandson, Aaron Burr Alston, be born to his daughter Theodosia Burr (named after her mother) and Joseph Alston, South Carolina State Representative and future South Carolina Governor after being with him for a year. Ten years later...

As a young, avid writer of Alternate History, I have written numerous timelines in my free time. However, I have never had the confidence to post them to this site, but I finally have a timeline I feel excited and proud enough to post here. I hope you enjoy. President John Adams's shocking...

Never do today what you can do tomorrow. Something may occur to make you regret your premature action. - Aaron Burr "Wasn't it Burr who started all of this?" He said with a huff. "Burr? You don't mean-" "You know who the fuck I mean Greg." The soldier snapped as they continued walking the empty...

Aaron Burr's political hopes may have been ruined by his infamous duel with Alexander Hamilton, but it wasn't the only duel he took part in. In September of 1799, he fought a duel with John Barker Church (coincidentally married to one of Hamilton's sisters-in-law), who accused him of taking a...

In 1804, Vice-President Aaron Burr challenged Alexander Hamilton to a duel. Burr was furious over Hamilton's support of a rival Republican over him for Governor of New York, in addition to Hamilton's personal attacks on Burr's character. Hamilton considered accepting Burr's offer, but...

Otl, Alexander Hamilton, with endorsement from both Adams and Washington, was the third president of the US. his term saw massive centralization in the federal government, and a fair amount in the president. He increased tariffs massively, in a clear and successful attempt to kick start...

Chapter 1: Death of a Prominent American President Lafayette “I have missed the Fourth, it is fitting that I have caught this day. Poetic.” -the last entry of Lafayette’s journal, transcribed by Thomas Jefferson. In no more than five paragraphs, briefly describe the life and death of a...

Aaron Burr has always been one of those historical figures that has always fascinated me. While today he is mostly known for being Thomas Jefferson's VP, being the black sheep of the Founding Fathers, and shooting Alexander Hamilton, Burr was really an interesting individual. While it is true...

Thomas Jefferson was an important figure in American politics, who came close to the presidency two times, in 1800 and 1804. In 1800 Jefferson tied in electoral votes with his supposed vice-presidential candidate Aaron Burr, opening up a loophole that allowed Aaron Burr to become president after...

What if Alexander Hamilton came out on top in the infamous duel against Aaron Burr and the former vice president is murdered by Hamilton? In OTL Burr's political career was ruined by the duel (only for it to be further ruined by the Burr Conspiracy), however, Hamilton was the one challenged, not...

The 1796 US Presidential Elections in US history simply because it would determine who would be America's leader after Washington. In OTL, it was John Adams but what if it was another, more shady figure in American history? Update #1: The Cursed Cold The United States of America was at a...

-Introduction- A/N: I had this idea for a while now, and finally I decided to pick up my thumbs and start typing. I will do the first update this Monday, in the meantime, what do you think? Aaron Burr finishes his term in office as vice president. After he killed the former Secretary of...

Excuse me if i'm not an expert on early american history. So, assume Aaron Burr manages to get elected to the office of President of the United States in the 1800's. I hear he was a visionary who wanted to expand the United States as an independent power, and he was also friendly to the french...

So, in 1798, Alexander Hamilton and James Monroe danced around dueling each other, and were only stopped by the intervention of Aaron Burr, in what may be one of American history's more morbid jokes. So let's say they do have a duel -- and Hamilton, cursed with ill luck with pistols no matter...
