Gerard de Lisle was an English nobleman. He was the son and heir of Sir Warin de Lisle and his wife, Alice, sister and heiress of Henry Teyes Junior, Lord Teyes. In March 1327 when proceedings against his executed father, as an adherent of Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, were annulled, the escheator was ordered not to meddle with his lands, as Sir Warin had held nothing in chief. The title of Earl of Lancaster was created in the Peerage of England in 1267, merging in the crown in 1399.

Gerard was knighted in the same year and was summoned by the King for military service in December 1334 and March 1335. Knight is the English term for a social position originating in the Middle Ages. In 1333 and 1335 he was certainly engaged in the Scottish Wars of Edward III of England, in the latter year under Richard, Earl of Arundel. Edward III (13 November 1312 &ndash 21 June 1377 was one of the most successful English monarchs of the Middle Ages. The title Earl of Arundel is the oldest extant Earldom and perhaps the oldest extant title in the Peerage of England. In 1339 Sir Gerard had a dispute with his mother as to the presentation to the church of Stowe-Nine-Churches (Northamptonshire) but he eventually admitted that it was not his turn.

In 1347 Sir Gerard succeeded to his mother's inheritance and, according to modern doctrine, became Lord Teyes, although it seems unlikely that he ever used the title. He made an agreement, on March 5, 1350, to again accompany the Earl of Arundel, with 30 men-at-arms in return for 100 marks (£66-13s-4d) per annum, receiving £100 before leaving England.

Lord Lisle married firstly, in or before 1330, Eleanor, whose parentage is unknown. She was presumably dead by 1347, when Gerard was contracted to marry Margery, widow of Sir Nicholas de la Beche. However, she was carried off from Beaumys Castle, near Reading, by Sir John de Dalton and others. Gerard was appointed to arrest the marauders and, fearing bodily harm in the attempt, was authorised to bear arms. However, Margery married Dalton and, before July 1354, Gerard had also taken a new wife: Elizabeth, widow of the fourteen-year-old Edmund, Lord St. John of Basing Castle in Hampshire who held several manors in dower.
