Sir Lionel Tollemache, 2nd Baronet PC, of Helmingham Hall in Suffolk, was twice elected as a Member of Parliament for Orford in Suffolk, in 1621 and 1628. He had a considerable reputation as a surgeon, but is said to have made many enemies due to his "immoderate temper".

Catherine or Katherine Tollemache was an English aristocrat, who collected and wrote culinary and medical recipes, and was known for her healing skills.
