As wife of Sir Thomas Coningsby she lived at Leominster and Hampton Court, Herefordshire, where their monogram "TCP" was carved in several places. Coningsby wrote in a letter to Sir Robert Cecil that his wife was his "near kinswoman".HMC Salisbury Hatfield, vol. 11 (Dublin, 1906), pp. 114, 161.

She died in 1596, and was buried at Hope under Dinmore.

In 1617, an unmarried cousin of her husband, Joyce Jeffreys, who was born at Ham Castle at Clifton-upon-Teme, joined the household to be a "perpetual companion" to the younger Philippa Coningsby.Judith M.
