  1. I think this is a good timeline. It has some good information to give me an idea of his life. One idea that might work better is to put the dates first, just so that they're all lined up evenly and easier to find. If you don't want to do that, it's fine, it looks great the way it is. :)

  2. This timeline is very good. You give good and main events that happen in his life. The only thing i think you should add is if you can find anything about his childhood since you are doing his whole life.

  3. I think your timeline is very good. I get a lot of facts and events from his life. The only thing I'd suggest thinking about is possibly put the dates first because it might be easier to read, but i do like how it's different from other timelines.
