2 small sub-branches more without a page: 32 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 276 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 50 distinct among 146 kits. FTDNA gives surnames per branch only, with no country attached, so they cannot be split by country.
