Description
The surname potentially occurs as many variants, including DeArmond (the variant used hereafter), d'Armand, D'Armond, DeArman, DeArment, DeArmon, Dearmont, Deyarmie, Deyarmon, DeYarmon, Deyarmond, Dorman, McDearmond, McDermid, McDermott, and likely several others. Though some histories suggest the name may devolve from the French surname d'Armand de Chateauvieux, there is currently no known documented evidence of this connection.
Please note that in order to join this project, the Y-DNA test participant must ALWAYS be a MALE who either (1) descends in an unbroken male-to-male line from a DEARMOND male ancestor or (2) has reason to believe he descends from such an ancestor. Female DeArmonds do not possess the Y chromosome required for Y-DNA testing, and are therefore not directly eligible for DeArmond surname genetic research; but we are very interested in Y-DNA results for your male DeArmond relatives!
If you have any questions regarding your DNA tests or results, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Requirements
A Surname Project traces members of a family that share a common surname. They are of the most interest in cultures where surnames are passed on from father to son like the Y-Chromosome. This project is for males taking a Y-Chromosome DNA (Y-DNA) test. Thus, the individual who tests must be a male who wants to check his direct paternal line (father's father's father's...) with a Y-DNA12, Y-DNA37, Y-DNA67, or Y-DNA111 test and who has one of the surnames listed for the project. Females do not carry their father's Y-DNA. Females who would like to check their father's direct paternal line can have a male relative with his surname order a Y-DNA test. Females can also order an mtDNA test for themselves such as the mtDNAPlus test or the mtFullSequence test and participate in an mtDNA project. Both men and women may take our autosomal Family Finder test to discover recent relationships across all family lines.
