Philadelphia Scrope

Philadelphia, Lady Scrope (née Carey; December 1563 - 1629) was an English aristocrat and courtier.

[3] She is mentioned in Elizabeth Southwell's narrative of the queen's final days, as her special confidante.

[4] On the queen's death, she passed her sapphire ring to her brother Robert Carey, who rode to Scotland to give it to James VI.

Another group of women, led by Lucy, Countess of Bedford also travelled to Scotland, attempting to gain the new queen's favour.

[9] A letter of Philadelphia Scrope mentions that she had escorted Anne of Denmark from Warwick, according to directions from Sir Robert Cecil, but unlike her companions, she had no reward.
