Harm was (in 1176) a town in Germany. There was a wave of flesh immigrants that came through here in the middle ages. Often times (this far back) a last name was taken from an occupation of where you were from. Many towns in America bare the names of those who settled them.

This is a composition of the two German words "heri", which means army, and "mann", which means man. Most likely the two combined give the definition of some sort of warrior or soldier.
