If you want a timeline that is based on what actually makes the most internal mathematical sense if you rigorously scrutinize every bit of canon material we have and choose to treat as much of it as possible as if it's correct & intentional in order to line the show up with a chronological timeline, then you want Hana Hyperfixates' Gravity Falls timeline on Tumblr:

And if you have time, check the video version of Hana Hyperfixates' Gravity Falls timeline on YouTube:

There is also the timeline of pre-series events that precede The Portal Incident made by huginsmemory:

This is very helpful thank you for the resources. Eventually, I will post something relating to the timeline of my AU just not right now while I'm still working on all the technicalities and whatnot. Thanks :)
Part 1-->
Now I'm curious, why did you have the twins born in 1948 instead of going with canon and having them born in 1951?
Mostly because when I made the AU I had a difficult time finding the correct timelines and whatnot and went screw this and made my own, I still have a difficult time finding the correct timeline, if anyone has any resources that could help with the Gravity Falls timeline it would be a lifesaver, thanks for asking :3
I like that you made Shermie be 12 years older than the twins. Since he left at 17 when they were 5. I mean, I don't know if Shermie's birthday is before or after the twins' birthday. Like Shermie made 17 or was to made 18 when he left home? The twins made 5 or were going to make 6?
(I hope this makes sense)
Okay so- In my trusty notes I have written down IN THIS AU that Shermie was born in 1936. Stan and Ford on the other hand were born in 1948. (This is NOT canon :O) That means that 1936-1948= 12, Also I MESSED MY YEARS up at first somehow and had to go back and change them (It didn't change anything)—> Ahah- also I will get into like… what happens with different years or whatever some other time because like… I never experienced those years and whatnot and I want to represent them correctly ;-;. Anyways, I don't have their birthdays really worked out yet. I do know Stan and Fords are both June 15th. Shermie on the other hand I don't know. I will make this a poll and the month that wins will be his month >:)
The twins were 4(in 1952)turning 5( in 1953) when Shermie left the house. Shermie was 16(in 1952) turning 17 (1953) [Shermie left in 1953]
I don't know what month Shermie totally 100% left the house but I know for a fact he WAS 17, meaning his birthday already happened before he left, It doesn't matter if Stan+Ford were 4 or 5 years of age because they wouldn’t remember him/maybe slight confusion of faint memories involving someone else BUT IN GENERAL they wouldn't know him. SO ALL MONTHS ARE OPEN—>
Eugh so many numbers -_-
POLL under this thing v
Can you tell us more about Stan's relationship with his family in D11B? How was Caryn relationship with Stan? How was Filbrick relationship with Stan? Shermie is older or younger than the twins in the AU? If older, how was he relationship with Stan? If younger, did he even know that Stan exists?
Can you tell us more about Stan's relationship with his family in D11B?
2. How was Caryn's relationship with Stan?
3. How was Filbrick's relationship with Stan?
4. Shermie is older or younger than the twins in the AU?
5. If older, how was his relationship with Stan?
6. If younger, did he even know that Stan exists?
1. Stan's relationship overall with family is very, very terrible. Mainly because of his parents and what Ford did. Of course their parents just suck and Ford was being manipulated to do something he SHOULDN’T have done… of course he did it anyways -_-. Anyways Cannon Stanley tends to protect his family with everything and trust them with his heart. Yeah uh- 11B Stan doesn't have a good running for a “Good family” hah- what's that? Because of the points above and to add onto that Rico and all his jazz→ A main thing Rico says alot is that his group is a big “family” and they have to look out for each other. And then again when 11B Stan has a run in with eugh… Jimmie→ Yeah Stan doesn't like or want a family ;-;. He is very skeptical. The only person he trusts is Ford even after the horrible thing he had done. All the other stuff outweighs it in his mind making Ford probably the safest person he has known… Other than Caryn.
2+3. 11BStan absolutely hates both of their parents, especially Filbrick unlike the cannon Stan who tends to think that people are always right for whatever they say about him, 11BStanley isn't, this is because of how he was bullied in my AU and how everything was different in my AU making Stan more apt to stand up for himself, specifically if its Filbrick because he doesn't want anything that happens to him to happen to Ford. He doesn't do much with the bullies but he does for their Father. Fillbrick is abusive in this AU towards the whole family due to his own self-esteem issues of course haha- ha… :( anyway, he abuses Stan and Ford both however because Stan pushed himself to purposely snap back at Filbrick it was delayed when Ford started getting abused.
With their mother Caryn Stan thinks she is more of a push over… She is too. Filbrick tends to yell alot and Caryn can't deal with it resulting in drinking as a solution. Drinking makes your judgment bad and she tends to act on it by saying whatever is on her mind. It tends to make hurtful comments but she wont ever hurt anyone by hitting them or whatnot like Filbrick would do. Stan also doesn't like her business which is a “phone psychic” he sees it as lying and doesnt like it. But he doesn't do anything about it and also the “tips” he learned from her actually come in handy when he becomes homeless.
Stan and Ford both tend to have a bad relationship with both of their parents but they both lean towards their mother and definitely spent more time with her. Their Father wasn't around all the time and was always out of the pawnshop doing other “whatever he does” stuff.
4. Shermie is older than both of the twins in this AU, but he left when he was 17 and signed up for the army due to pressure from his father ;-; (their parents are absolutely horrible in this—> it doesn't get better) So Shermie left to the army because Pa wants the money that comes with it. His mother was telling him not to but Pa had too much influence over him and he left anyway. Pa was guilt tripping him into thinking it was a good way to get money to help out with the family because Stan and Ford/ Stan and Ford were “accidents;-;” and they “didn't have the money for that. Stan and Ford were both five years old when he did this in my AU. (I have no clue how old their parents are;-;) Basically, Shermie ends up going MIA and never meets Stan or Ford. And because their parents suck they never mention Shermie once… Mainly because—Ma (It's too hard on her and she doesn't want to burden her sons with the loss of one of their brothers) and Pa (Who thinks there is no reason to bring it up). Then again Shermie when MIA was missing in action brought a new mystery if he died or not ;) I will have this explored in my story eventually when I get to it. I literally can't wait to have them both go WHAT? We had another brother!?! And then they go on a mission to find their long-lost brother.
5. But Shermie knew the twins existed of course and loved them very much, he sent them letters regularly that never made it to them…
I tried my best to answer this as peak as possible buttt I have been working on this for an hour;-; I hope you enjoy the answer :3 Please ask more questions I love answering them!! Also, I hope there are no spelling errors Blehg.
