Pre Apollo 1 fire Apollo schedule

I was wondering if anyone had any information on what the schedule/mission order of the Apollo missions was before the Apollo 1 fire happened. I would imagine the scheduling would have been way different if Apollo 1 had launched as planned... The first manned mission would have been 1 instead of 7. Would the lunar landing have been earlier than 11? If so, how much earlier?

I'm not sure it actually changed the schedule very much. They had already been working on a Block II spacecraft anyway. They just decided to use up the Block I spacecraft in unmanned testing.

Apollo 1 was not called Apollo 1 until after the fire. They had been calling it AS-204.
