Okay, after reading how to write a Timeline, I have decided to start an timeline all by myself.
Please, bear with me, I'm not good with these things and help would be MUCH appreciated. What I'm planning to write about, is this; I'm fascinated by the history of Walt Disney and the Disney corporation and their history. What I'm planning to write is a small timeline where the things that happened during the lives of the Disney corporation and taken in a different swing.
Once again, help would be appreciated.
January 7th, 1884. Elias Disney marries Flora Call in Charlotte, North Carolina. Elias Disney has a good paying job as a miner in the gold mines and meets Flora Call, the daughter of the local tavern owner and it's love at first sight.
January 8th, 1884- April 12th 1898. Elias and Flora Disney live in Charlotte, living on the lone of Elias's work in the mines.
March 30th, 1898. Walt Elias Disney is born. Urban legends say that on his birthday, his father was working in the mine and one of his colleagues had come down in the mine, claiming that his wife Flora had her water broke while she was serving pints and her father, for her own safety, laid her on the table she was serving the pints.
When Elias came in the tavern, full with dust and root, he had his son in his arms and gave him the name of the tavern, Walt's Inn. This strange story would later influence Walt's work.
April 13th, 1898. The mine Elias is working in, closes after the gold runs out. Elias and Flora are looking for another job to deal in the livings.
April 15th, 1898. Elias Disney brings in good news. He has found a new job as railway constructor on the Central Pacific line from neighboring Atlanta to Dallas, Texas.
June 21st, 1899. Construction ends in Dallas, Texas and Elias's contract has ended. Elias, Flora and One year old Walt settle in the city. The western culture of Texas would intervene with the work of Walt later on in his life.
June 22nd, 1898- August 31st, 1904. The Disney family settles in in Dallas and Walt grows up in the city. Elias Disney finds a job as Soap factory worker in the Jackson-Lewis soap factory in the city. They receive a house from the Central Pacific Railroad for his work on the railroad. Walt finds a friend. He befriends Yuri Zaganov, the son of Elias's colleague and friend Vasiliy Zaganov, a Russian immigrant from the Russian district in Main Dallas. Walt and Yuri become the best of friends.
September 1st, 1904. Walt goes to school for the first time and is mesmerized by his history teacher Damon E. Walozsky.
September 12th, 1904. Vasiliy Zaganov and his family knock on the door of the Disney's in the early evening, carrying a veil of salt and a loaf of bread. They want to celebrate their newly build house right next to the house of the Disney's. Vasiliy had recently earned enough money to build a house, and they build it right next to the Disney's. It'll become a beautiful evening.
October 1st, 1911. While walking to school, Walt and Yuri come across a strange building in Down Town Dallas. Walt asks Yuri what the building was. Yuri answers that this is the newly build movie theater. Walt wanted to go watch a movie, but Yuri brings him back to his senses and says that they could watch the movie later, there's school to attend.
After school, Yuri keeps his promise and takes Walt to the movies. With his last 2 cents, he pays the most recent animated movie, Little Nemo by James Stuart Blackton and Winsor McCay. After they had come out of the theater, Disney is even MORE fascinated by the medium, telling Yuri everything about the movie, going as far that Yuri said that Disney should quit with telling everything about the movie.
October 2nd, 1911 - June 27th, 1914. Live goes its way in Dallas. Elias works hard and earns money in the factory with Vasiliy, getting a promotion on March 30th, 1912. Disney goes to school and he starts drawing. Firstly, he started drawing comics with Yuri. It's in this period that his first character, Buffalo Bill came along. On April 16th, word of the sinking of the Titanic came to the city of Dallas. Walt is struck by the news. Yuri, being the good friend as he is, cheers him up by the news that Buffalo Bill has hit mainstream! He asked the editor of the local newspaper, The Solemn Star to post the comics of Buffalo Bill in his paper. He said yes, and they would receive a pretty penny for that!
For every comic they make, they'll receive 25 cents. Buffalo Bill is a young, courageous cowboy who, with the help of his Cossack friend Boris Ulyanka cross the plains of Texas to fight for what is right, shooting up bad guys, saving young damsels, busting up cow rustlers, jailing up rancorous horse thieves, the basic cowboy fantasies.
Well, I cut it here, folks. Leave a comment when read, give me constructive criticism, note me if something isn't correct or something. I'll keep on writing this thing when I get some good reviews, help, et cetera! I'm out!
