He sat as Member of Parliament for Castle Rising from 1586 to 1587. He was knighted in 1596 for his actions during the capture of Cádiz,[2] and in 1611 he was created a Baronet, of Wilberhall in the County of Norfolk. He was appointed a Justice of the Peace for Norfolk from c. 1591 and High Sheriff of Norfolk for 1594–1595. He was commissioner of musters for 1598 and Custos rotulorum in 1617.
Wodehouse married Grizell Yelverton, daughter of William Yelverton, on 22 December 1582. She was the widow of Thomas Lestrange of Hunstanton,[1] the grandson of Sir Nicholas le Strange.[3] Sir Philip died on 30 October 1623 and was succeeded in the baronetcy by his son, Thomas. Lady Wodehouse died in August 1635.
He was an ancestor of the British humorist P. G. Wodehouse. A women's jacket in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, is thought to have belonged to Grizell Wodehouse.[4]
