Marybeth Roe was born on September 11, 1942, in Duaneburg, New York. She was an average student at Duanesburgh High School and after graduation she worked at various jobs until she settled in as a nursing assistant at Ellis Hospital in Schenectady, New York. In 1963, at the age of 21, Marybeth met Joe Tinning on a blind date. Joe worked for General Electric as did Marybeth's father. He had a quiet disposition and was easy going. The two dated for several months and married in 1965. Marybeth Tinning once said that there were two things she wanted from life- to be married to someone who cared for her and to have children.

Any remorse Marybeth was experiencing seemed to dissolve as she became the central focus of her sympathizing friends and family. Joseph - Second Child, Died on January 20, 1972, just 17 days after Jennifer died; Marybeth rushed into the Ellis Hospital emergency room in Schenectady with Joseph, who she said had experienced some sort of seizure. He was quickly revived, checked out and then sent home. Hours later Marybeth returned with Joe, but this time he could not save. Tinning told the doctors that she put Joseph down for a nap and when she later checked on him she found him tangled up in the sheets and his skin was blue. There was no autopsy performed, but his
