This is a timeline posted on the Crashdown website that had some dates for Roswell happenings.
I have no idea where they got most of these dates, there were certainly never mentioned in the show.
I've also never found any mention of them in any of the extensive research I have done.
I've asked around but I haven't been able to find anyone who knows where they came from.
Even the current owner of the Crashdown has no idea.
Perhaps there were guesses or estimations?
But when you start looking closely at some of the dates, they are clearly wrong.
Like Milton born in 1958, but in the show we find out he was 5 or 6 in 1959.
They didn't include dates that happened in the episodes, and it suddenly stops after 'Leaving Normal'.
Maybe they got bored?
Anyway, I thought it was interesting so here is a repost.

Something crashes on a ranch owned by W.W. "Mac" Brazel.
A day or two later, Mac drives into Roswell where he reported the incident to Sheriff George Wilcox, who reports it to Intelligence Officer, Major Jesse Marcel of the 509th Bomb Group who quarantines the crash site and removes debris. On July 8, 1947, a press release states that the wreckage of a flying disk has been recovered by the 509th Bomb Group at Roswell, by Col. William Blanchard. Hours later the first press release is rescinded and the second press release states that the 509th Bomb Group had mistakenly identified a weather balloon as wreckage of a flying saucer.
