My town was settled in 1834 and officially established in 1852, so I guess I would just head for town, and eventually make my way to the east coast, where I would patent every valuable thing from 1961+ that I could think of.

Flee to England and use my superior knowledge to become rich doing patents and become a powerful industrailist, then go back home in the early days of the second Mexican Empire, convince Liberal Maximilian to set up a constitutional monarchy based on the Westminster system and prove to Juarez using modern arguments he must serve as prime minister, use Napoleon III French/Belgian troops and Mexican Federales armed with assault rifles to take over former Mexican territories using secesion as Casus Belli, retake Central America once I'm done with that, send absolutely all negors back to Africa in order to civilize the continent as allies, make it mandatory, funnel all European migration in the late 19th century along with Eugenics progarms to create a master race, prop up the Austrian empire in Europe and have Germans join them to retake Constantinople and overtake Russia, start a campaign to erradicate Islam at that point in history, make sure all European countries get a fair share of colonization and start moving towards a European Union, as the greatest and most powerful empire in the world use incentives such as access to modern scientific medicine to eventually unite the Western hemisphere, make a deal with the Empire of Japan that will allow them to take over mos of Asia as an allied power. Once I have secured a bright future for Western civilization retire to peacefully write and contemplate the world in which I'll pass to history as the greatest genius who ever lived...
