Fics like Professor Layton Timeline

I have been slowly compiling this timeline over the last year, adding and altering things as I replay the games and read people's meta on Tumblr. I am broadly basing everything around a tweet from @HershelLayton that said two trilogies take place in the 50's and 60's; I am not sure if the account is official or not, but it seems like a good estimate. Some things will be pure headcanon - like when Hershel bought the Laytonmobile - but I thought were worth putting on the map anyway. This is not completely finished and I will be continuing to tweak things as needed, but I use this timeline all the time for my own fics and I hope you'll find it useful, too!
