Philippe was the daughter of Edward Tyrrell[1][2] and Anne Pashley. Her birth date is uncertain, as is her birth place (her father had lands and interests in several counties).[3][4]
In 1442 Philippe and her sister Margaret were bequeathed a life interest in the manors of her father, their brother Edward having died.[5]
Philippe married Thomas Cornwallis.[3][4][6] They married before 1446/7, when they are mentioned as man and wife in a Feet of Fines entry.[3][4][7] They had the following children:
Katherine, who married Francis[2] or Thomas[1][8] Froxmere[3][4] (spelt Frewsmere in Metcalfe's edition of Suffolk Visitations[2])
Philippe's husband Thomas died on 26 May 1484.[3][4][9] Her own death date is not known.

Magna Carta Project
This profile was developed for the Magna Carta Project by Michael Cayley on 10 September 2021 and was reviewed/approved the same day by Thiessen-117.
Philippe (Tyrell) Cornwallis also appears in Magna Carta Ancestry in a Richardson-documented trail from Gateway AncestorJohn Throckmorton to Magna Carta Surety BaronRobert de Vere (vol. IV, pages 190-191 THROCKMORTON) that that was badged on 27 December 2023. The trail is outlined in the Magna Carta Trails section of Bassingbourne Throckmorton's profile.
See Base Camp for more information about Magna Carta trails. See the project's glossary for project-specific terms, such as a "badged trail".
FYI - The Magna Carta Project has identified this profile as being on a trail from Gateway Ancestor Francis Dade to surety barons Saher de Quincy and Robert de Vere. I'll be adding the Magna Carta Project as co-manager of the profile.
