Fixed the stuff about Vlad Drakul and tweaked Charity's birth. Also added the French and Indian War. If you haven't already, can someone put together a list of WoJ stuff Jim has said happened during that time? It's kind of a magnet date for awesome, apparently!
Wow, dunno how this slipped by me Priscellie. Here goes:
2009 Lexington signing:
Q: Will we ever find out more about the Black Cats, or about Eb’s early years?A: He’s considered writing a story in the Dresdenverse about the American-Indian war, when Eb and the Merlin were both young punks.
2009 Independence signing:
Q: How old is Eb? A: Eb is over 300 years old. He and Merlin have known each other for a very long time. They fought on opposite sides in the French & Indian war.

If I ever do any major work (IE, novels) from alternate characters, I probably could not set them in the time period of the Dresden Files. I have several neat ideas, and the one that appeals to me the most is writing the French and Indian war years from the viewpoint of a young Ebenezar McCoy and his associates. The first duel between Eb and Listens-to-Wind is pretty epic in my head.

Interesting snippet that could be placed into the timeline
2010 RAFO interviewAll the wizards in The Dresden Files seem to have their own personal motif and way of channelling energy. What's the oddest and/or most entertaining motif you've come up with?My favorite is probably from an unpublished short story I wrote, set in the Dresden Files universe, but during the Battle of the Bulge. The Nazis had a sorcerer operating out of an old monastery, and the White Council dispatched the Belgian wizard, Klaus the Toymaker. Klaus's magic is all based around using children's toys as focii. My favorite moment was when he killed a couple of SS-summoned demons with a windup wooden duck.
timeline summary for that snippet:
~1944-1955 Klaus the Toymaker defeats Nazi sorcerer during the Battle of the Bulge.
