Thomas was baptised at Benenden, Kent, England before 1541, but the records before 1541 for Benenden have not been found. His parents were Richard and Elizabeth Tilden. His mother's family name was possibly Glover. His parents moved to Tenterden, Kent about 1553, because their last four children were born there. Thomas married Alice Bigge on March 10, 1577 in Tenterden. Thomas and Alice had seven children, all born in Tenterden between 1579 and 1593. Alice died in May of 1593 and was buried at Tenterden on May 13, twelve days after the birth of her last child. Thomas married, on November 13, 1593, Ellen Hubbard of Rolvenden, Kent, the widow of Thomas Couchman and Emmanuel Everenden. Thomas and Eleanor had no children. Eleanor died and Thomas took a third wife, Alice Bourne, possibly the sister of Freegift Bourne. Thomas and Alice had one child, a son named Freegift after her brother, born in Tenterden and baptised on May 29, 1604 there. After that, Thomas moved to East Guilford in Sussex until 1614. He then moved to Wye in Kent and died there in June of 1617. He was buried in Wye on June 6 at the St. Gregory & St. Martin Churchyard..
