Looking for someone to develop this project. I don't have the ability nor connections to do this. I would like to give it to someone.
All I have is the history of my family, knighted by Charles II, from immigrating to Baltimore in 1682. We were long hunters partnered with James Boone, Daniel's son in 1772, active revolutionists, Civil War soldiers, operators of an underground slave railroad, built the first Indianapolis car to go faster than 90 mph, Grapes of Wrath folks, Conscientious Objector that changed the military regulations for the first time.
I have all the documents for this story, but I'm 79 years old and a news journalist. This is out of my wheelhouse.

Sounds like an incredible story. We have a few ghostwriters on here - maybe consider that as an option if you are thinking of a book?

Great historical sources there, Jim.
All it needs is structure and you're set.

The outline above. is just the tips of. the waves.. I'm not interested in the fiduciary returns that a story like this could bring. When I got York replies, it occurred to me that maybe a group of writers could address this story and write segments of it. And retain all of the screenwrights. I think with the two 150th anniversary of the US coming up in 20 26 this would be an attractive story So I would be willing to let a group of writers take the project on and make it their own and if I got a small penny in my cup, I'd be grateful.
I have a great deal of documentation. that addresses the personalities and locations and integrations with historical events and just a cursory research into each document that I have would reveal some incredible incidents that I just can't go into in 25 words or less here.

Interesting, yes. I'm interested in being a part of where this could go, barring time commitments.
