Edmund Street was named for Sir Edmund R Fremantle, a nephew of Sir Charles Fremantle the founder of the city. Edmund served with Sir Charles as Flag Lieutenant from 1858 – 1861. He died in 1929 at the age of 93. Edmund Street was gazetted on the 25 May 1922 and was previously known as Marmion Road. Lot 2 of 27 is recorded as having three cottages on it in 1900. All belonged to Frances Pike, a widow who lived in one of the cottages.
