Frederick Arthur Lye (1881 – 3 October 1949) was a New Zealand politician of the Liberal Party then of the United Party. The United Party was a continuation of the historical Liberal Party, albeit more conservative.
Early life and family
Born in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England, Lye was the son of Robert Bevan Lye. The family moved to New Zealand in 1886, arriving in Auckland, where Lye was educated. He left home when he was 19 years old and found work milking cows on a dairy farm near Pukekohe. About five years later, he took up farming on his own account at Otakeho on Taranaki's Waimate Plains. In 1906, Lye married Charlotte Louie Preece from Kaponga, and the couple went on to have 10 children. They remained farming at Otakeho until 1918, when they moved to Pukekura, just south of Cambridge in the Waikato, while retaining their farming interests in Taranaki.[1]
His younger brother, Samuel Charles Gale Lye (1884–1937),[2] was also a dairy farmer[3][4] and also stood for the Liberals in several elections.[5]
