Hi, Rick Vaughan
Welcome to the Google Maps Community Support Forum & thanks for your post.
Regrettably, it wouldn't be possible to recover the timeline.
Google purges the data from the servers once a user deletes that.
Also, keeping the data despite the deletion action by the user will create another controversy.
Users will complain, "Google retained my data disrespecting my choice to preserve the privacy.
Google employees or representatives aren't reading the posts usually.
