Gilbert had a grant of free warren in Haydock and Bradley in 1344; also leave to make a park in Haydock. By his wife Emma, there was a numerous offspring, but elder sons, named Matthew and Gilbert, seem to have died young, and the heir to the manor was John de Haydock, who was in possession by 1358.

Sir Gilbert de Haydock was knight of the shire in 1320, 1321, and 1324 [Parl. Repre. of Lancs. 19, 20]. He is not described as knight in later deeds. A settlement of the moiety of the manor of Haydock and lands in Haydock, Bold, Newton, and other townships was made in 1332, and the children of Gilbert are named: Matthew, John, Richard, Peter, Leonard, Nicholas, Anabel, Eleanor, and Katherine [Final Conc. ii, 82; Raines, loc. cit. 39].
In another deed of the same year the remainders to the children of Gilbert son of Matthew de Haydock are given: Matthew, Peter, Richard, John, Anabel, and Eleanor [ibid. 236]. The two daughters are named as late as 1368 [ibid. 165]. In the remainders in a provision for the younger children made in 1335, the order is John, Richard, Katherine, Anabel, and Eleanor; with final remainder to Matthew [ibid. 43].

Gilbert de Haydock was living in 1354, when he received a grant of lands in Newton from Sir Robert de Langton [ibid. 157]. At Christmas 1361, Gilbert le Norreys, administrator of the goods of Gilbert de Haydock, arranged for certain payments to be made according to the will of the deceased, £4 to Geoffrey de Worsley, 33s. 4d. each to the churches of Winwick and Warrington, and £5 7s. 6d. to certain chaplains singing divine service for his soul [ibid. 53].

In 1330, he founded the chantry of the Holy Trinity, in the parish church of Winsick, and 1348, it would appear he also endowed another chanter at Chester. In 1333, being married to a land of the name Emma, he made a settlement of his estates (his brother William being trustee), by which he entailed them upon his several son successively, and upon two daughters, one of whom was named Annabell who was married to Sir Geoffrey de Workesley. In 18 Edward III (1344), he had a license to empark Haydock, and a grant of free warren in Bradley. In 1349, Sir Gilbert levied a fine of his estates. He died before the end of 1361, and was succeeded by his son, John de Haydock.
