Philip matriculated May 28, 1634 at Corpus Christi College, Oxford. He was B.A. from St. Mary's Hall, April 27, 1637; M.S. January 16, 1639-40, and was rector of Norton, county Durham, from 1641-1644, when he was ejected by the Parliamentary authorities. He is said to have gone with Prince Rupert's fleet to the West Indies. Rev. Philip Mallory was, of course, a loyalist.
The date of his arrival in Virginia is not known, but in 1656 he was one of the most prominent ministers of the Colony. He officiated, as a minister, in York county September 1660, at the celebration of the restoration of Charles II, and probably performed the same office at Jamestown. He must have died almost immediately after landing in England.
