Nicolas Tindal

Nicolas Tindal (1687 – 27 June 1774) was the translator and continuer of the ''History of England'' by Paul de Rapin. Very few comprehensive histories existed at the time and Tindal wrote a three-volume ('Continuation' ), a history of the Kingdom from the reigns of James II to George II. Tindal was Rector of Alverstoke in Hampshire, Vicar of Great Waltham, Essex, Chaplain of Greenwich Hospital and a Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford.
==Background==

Tindal's father, John Tindal, the Rector of Cornwood, Devon and Vicar of St Ives, Cornwall, was the brother of Matthew Tindal, the eminent deist and author of 'Christianity as Old as the Creation'. A near relation of Thomas, 1st Lord Clifford, Lord High Treasurer of Charles II,〔Lord Clifford was a first cousin of Tindal's grandmother, Anne Tindal, née Hals: ''Burke's Landed Gentry'' (1863): ('Tindal of Chelmsford' )〕 the Tindal family were derived from Baron Adam de Tindale, a tenant in chief of Henry II.〔Nichols, John (1812) ''Literary Anecdotes of the Eighteenth Century'', Vol IX: ''Genealogy of the Family of Tindal of Northumberland, Devon & Essex''.〕
Tindal went up to Exeter College, Oxford, where he took an MA degree in 1713. From Oxford, he took up his rectory in Hampshire and was later appointed a Fellow of Trinity. When Tindal mastered the French language is unclear, although he was the first member of his family to bear the French spelling of his name - a very popular one amongst his descendants.〔''Burke's Landed Gentry'' (1973) 'Tindal-Carill-Worsley'〕 However, he first engaged in his life's work of historical translation with the publication, in monthly numbers, of his translation (from the French of Antoine Augustin Calmet) of the "Dissertation of the Excellency of the History of the Hebrews above that of any other Nation, wherein are examined the Antiquities and History of the Assyrians, Chaldans, Egyptians, Phoeninicans, Chinese &c. with the Peopling of America... Written in French by R. P. D'Augustin Calmet", which appears to have been a considerable undertaking.〔 Tindal went on to write a ''History of Essex'', having become Vicar of Great Waltham, although this project never came to fruition.〔''New Dictionary of National Biography'' ('DNB') (Oxford, 2004)〕
