Some of the older etymologists are no longer respected, but I will merely report that the surname TINSLEY is briefly treated in “A Dictionary of Surnames” by Mark Antony Lower, published 1988, page 347 (first published in 1860 as “A Dictionary of the Family Names of the United Kingdom”).

TINSLEY: "A chapelry in the parish of Rotherham, co. York." (That's the full definition.)
