Surnames #

Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 62 distinct among 217 kits. FTDNA gives surnames per branch only, with no country attached, so they cannot be split by country.

YFull

The same branch on YFull #

YFull builds its tree from the same SNPs; the node is matched by name or by a shared SNP. TMRCA is when the common ancestor of all samples lived, formed is when the branch split from its parent. Intervals are 95%.

E-S2979: 415 samples. The common ancestor lived 3,600 years ago (3,200–4,000); the branch split off 3,600 years ago (3,300–3,900).
