From about 1543 until his death Lewis Dyve was an active local official in Bedfordshire. He was a moderately wealthy landowner, whose family had come originally from Northamptonshire. By his time the main branch was settled at Bromham, with property at various places in Bedfordshire.
William Camden in his Britannia written between 1577 and 1610, states that Gosceline de Dyve came over to England with William the Conqueror (1066-1087). F. W. Kuhlicke, in an article in The Bedfordshire Magazine, noted that Camden's scholarship "must be treated with caution". He goes on to note that a Leodar de Dive held land in Northamptonshire in the early 13th century, where the family remained until 1553.
That was the year in which Sir Lewis Dyve purchased the Manor of Bowels. He purchased the Manor of Wakes three years later and the Manor of Brayes in 1565 and with them the greater part of the parish of Bromham, only the second Bromham Manor evading his grasp, falling into the hands of the Boteler family of Biddenham, with whom the Dyves feuded for a number of years at the end of the 16th century.
Sir Lewis was Sheriff of Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire under King Henry VIII (1509-1547) in 1544. His father was William Dive and his grandfather Sir John Dive, knighted in 1510 who had also been Sheriff of the two counties. Sir John's father had married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Wilde of Bromham which seems to be the earliest connection with Bedfordshire and with Bromham in particular.
Sir Lewis died in 1592. He was buried in Bromham church where his monument can be seen at the east end of the north aisle.
