Gilbert Tichborne was a member of the Tichborne family that held Tichborne manor, about five miles east of Winchester, although at his death Gilbert lived in Winchester itself. His will (HRO: 1636A78/1) suggests that he had no immediate family at the time of his death, as the main bequests were made to his nephew Sir Richard Tichborne (c 1578–1652), 2nd Baronet Tichborne, and to his other nephews, Sir Walter, Sir Benjamin, and Sir Henry Tichborne. Gilbert must have been a younger brother of Sir Benjamin Tichborne (c 1542–1629), 1st Baronet Tichborne and father to Sir Richard.
