Primrose History

This name Primrose is taken from the lands of Primrose in the parish of Dunfermline. It has been suggested that it originally came from the old British, “prenn rhos”: meaning “tree of the moor”.

The Primroses were well settled in Fife, around the Abbey of Culross, by the fifteenth century. Henry Primrose had four sons and one daughter.
