Where did the English Plume family come from? What is the English Plume family crest and coat of arms? When did the Plume family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Plume family history?
The Plume surname comes from uncertain origins. Some instances of the name come from the Middle English word "plum(b)e," in turn from the Middle Low German "plum" all meaning "plum." As such, the name would have been used as a name for someone who lived by a plum tree, or for a grower or seller of plums. The surname is also thought to derive from the Old French "plomb," meaning "lead;" in which case it was thought to have originally been an occupational name for a plumber.
