Nathan Tinker Maxson was probably a descendent of Sag Harbor's master furniture maker, Nathan Tinker, who was born in 1792. Nathan Tinker married Hannah Woodward and raised a family in Sag Harbor. His furniture and cabinets were found for sale in stores in Riverhead, Bridgehamptson, East Hampton, and Southold, as well as his place of business in Sag Harbor. After Eldredge's Coffee House burned in 1845, Nathan Tinker acquired the site and built a brick building that eventually became the American Hotel.
