David,
I don't like to be the one to have to tell you this, but neither you nor anyone else is descended from William Tyndale.
To quote his biographer,
"It is evident that God had enflamed Tyndale’s heart with a passion to produce a pure English translation of the Scriptures, and to the fulfillment of this noble purpose he dedicated his life, willingly suffering great privations, forgoing the joys of marriage and a settled family life, for the sake of endowing his beloved people with the eternal Word of God. "
HOWEVER, we are all RELATED to him, as Tindall, Tyndale, Tynedale, Tindal, etc. are all from the same little family on the dale through which the river Tyne flows through in northeast England.
