Walter Pye (Royalist)

Sir Walter Pye (1610–1659) of The Mynde, Much Dewchurch, Herefordshire was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons variously between 1628 and 1640.

[2][3] In April 1640, Pye was elected MP for Herefordshire in the Short Parliament.

He was a supporter of the King and on this account was deprived of his office in 1648.

[4] Pye married Elizabeth, daughter of John Sanders, and had three children.

The children remained Catholic and his son Walter maintained allegiance to the exiled Stuarts and lived on the continent where he was given the title Lord Kilpec.
