"RobertA Tinker (or Tynker, Tyncker), the earliest known progenitor of [the Tinker] family, was born say 1565, and he was buried at New Windsor, Berkshire, 2 June 1624. Although Robert's parentage and family background are unknown, the fact that he gave his eldest son the name Randall suggests that he was somehow related to the Randall Tinker who was a clerk of the choir at St. George's Chapel, Windsor in 1596. There may also have been a family connection to Philip Tinker (alias Littleton) (ca. 1606-1673), who was elected petty canon at St. George's Chapel in 1627 and subsequently served as confessor of the King's household and keeper of the Westminster Abbey register. …

In 1615, Robert Tinker served as a churchwarden of New Windsor and in that capacity he signed the Bishop's Transcripts that year for the parish."[2]
