Who Was Guy Fawkes? His father died when Fawkes was eight in 1578 and his mother lived as a widow for nine years. She re-married in 1587 and both she and Guy went to live in the village of Scotton, about 20 miles from York. Here Guy was heavily influenced by his step-father and it was his step-father who was very important in Guy's conversion to Catholicism. Fact: Fireworks contain gun powder which iswhat we use in guns tanks and other weapons.
