The Gerards (or Gerrards or Garret) are an old landed family. They had Staffordshire scions. Members of the Gerard family held Tittensor Hall in the 15th and 16th centuries. One of their famous sons was Gilbert Gerard.
Born in Tittensor, Gilbert died in 1593 and is buried in Ashley. He and his immediate family may be seen today depicted on his outstanding tomb in the church of St John the Baptist at Ashley, Staffordshire. It is described by Pevsner as a "machine".
Sir Gilbert Gerard, knighted in 1579, had a national profile and held high offices. He became Attorney General in 1559, and Master of the Rolls in 1581. He was appointed Chief Commissioner of the Great Seal in 1591. In approximately 1575 Sir Gilbert Gerard built Gerards Bromley Hall. Dr. Robert Plott, in his Natural History of Staffordshire published in Oxford in 1686, described Gerrards Bromley Hall as "the most magnificent structure of all this county". Although the present building is not that described by Dr. Plott, the porch added to it in 1584 was removed and is to be found today in the grounds of Batchacre Hall.
Also acquired land in Hilderstone.
Had a son Thomas.
