Tinker, Reuben, 1799-1854

Tinker, Reuben, 1799-1854

 
Tinker was born in Massachusetts and educated at Amherst College and New York’s Auburn Theological Seminary. Soon after his ordination in 1830, he sailed to do missionary work in the Sandwich Islands (now known as the Hawaiian Islands). He returned to the United States in 1840 and spent the next 4 years in Madison, Ohio. His time in Appalachia came at the end of his life; he served as pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Westfield, New York from 1845 until his death in 1854.

Additional information can be found in M. L. P. Thompson’s Biographical Sketch, published in Tinker’s Sermons (New York: Derby & Jackson, 1856).

    This volume was published posthumously, but work on it apparently began while Tinker was still alive. Some of the 30 sermons in the book were selected by Tinker himself; others were chosen “by a judicious committee to whom he referred the task, with full authority to act as their discretion might direct them” (p. 1).
