Timothy Danielson Lincoln was the son of Dr. Asa Lincoln and Sarah Danielson and the husband of Mary Clarke. He graduated from Wesleyan University in Connecticut. Then he began the study of law in the offices of Charles H. Warren of Bedford, MA. While studying law he also taught school.
Then in 1841 he migrated to Cincinatti, Ohio, and became a partner with Judge Charles Fox, a prominent Cincinatti attorney. They formed the firm, 'Fox and Lincoln.' When the partnership dissolved Timothy started a new firm on his own and later partnered with other attorneys. He was especially renowned for handling marine and insurance cases. Later in life he partnered with his son, John Ledyard Lincoln.

From New York Times, Obituary Notes, Apr. 2, 1890: "Timothy D. Lincoln, one of the foremost members of the bar in Cincinatti, died yesterday from a disease of the stomach. He was in court one week ago..." His wife was Roman Catholic and his children were raised in that faith. On his deathbed he converted to the Roman Catholic faith (from Congregational Protestant).
