Hello from Stephen Pye

Whatever I did, I must have done something right as you are visiting this little site. I hope there are some things that may be of use to you. I am especially interested to find out how you found out about this site. Please feel free to browse around,
I was born in Burnley Lancashire, England and lived for many years in Padiham, but went to school at Clitheroe Royal Grammar School from 1971 to 1977. I have family links with the Clitheroe area and in particular with Grindleton and Waddington. I now live in Leeds, West Yorkshire, with my son Steve. I also have three more children, Kelly, who sadly passed away in July 2002, Fiona who lives in Leeds and Phillip, who lives near York with his wife Helen and their son George.

I have two brothers and one sister. Ian currently lives in Thailand with his wife Mary together with children Michael and Gaby,  but his son Chris now lives near Portsmouth with his wife Tam and t heir children. Ian`s daughter Louise lives near Newmarket with her husband Wayne and boys Lois and Callum.

Graham lives in Northampton with Rachel and his daughters Hanna and Rachel`s children Matthew and Helen. Graham`s daughter Angie lives nearby. My sister  Sandra now lives in Perth, Australia with Alan Leeming and their son Thomas.
I am researching my family tree, looking all across the Ribble Valley. I have details of over 1500 relatives. My main lines are PYE and ODDIE.

They are spread all over North East Lancashire but especially Clitheroe, Waddington, Chipping

Some of my surnames are Calverley, Coward, Croasdale, Dugdale, Fishwick, Hargreaves, Hayhurst, Hyde, Jackson, Kitchen-Long, Mansergh, Oddie, Parkinson, Proctor, Pye, Shaw, Tomlinson, Whittaker,
I have a rather morbid interest in the Pendle Witches - Too many walks over the Nick o` Pendle in the dark !

My latest hobby is called Geocaching, which I started doing with Fiona. 
This is an excellent way of keeping fit as it encourages you to have nice walks and rambles in the countryside. It involves finding "treasure" that has been hidden by fellow geocachers.
To do this properly you need a handheld GPS satellite navigation unit. This gives the co-ordinates in latitude and longitude of anywhere on the planet. Then all you have to do is find it !!

My geocities name is "manston marauder" Take a look - it is fun.......
