FTDNA Y-tree branch

Haplogroup J-FT47280

J-FT47280 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 51 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: Russia (Republic of Dagestan) (4.0% of kits), Russia (Republic of Chechnya) (0.4% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 5,000 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 4,100 to 6,100 years ago. YFull has 8 samples in this branch and dates its common ancestor to 4,400 years ago.

Belongs to the J-M267 branch, which has a note.

Where it is found #

Countries and regions given by the branch's carriers. “Share of branch” is the part of the branch's kits that belongs to the country. “Share of country” is the part of that country's kits that falls into the branch; it is computed only for countries with at least 50 kits.

Colour is the branch's share of the country's kits. Hover over a country or tap it.

Migration path #

How the branch's ancestral line moved, as modelled by FamilyTreeDNA Discover: ancestor locations are estimated from present-day carriers, the path between them is the least-cost route over terrain. Dates are node TMRCAs, good to centuries.

Left to right runs from the distant past to today, in years ago; the past is packed tighter. Upward are the kilometres the line covered along Discover's route. A dot is an ancestor of the branch, the shaded band is the fastest stretch, the dashed line is J-M304, the root of the letter. Steep means the line was moving, flat means it stood still.

The line moved fastest 11,800–7,900 years ago: 1,400 km, about 350 km per millennium. From the root of the letter on, the line moved slowest 29,800–19,000 years ago: 650 km in 10,900 years. In all, the line covered 15,600 km along Discover's route. Joining the ancestors with straight lines gives 11,400 km; a straight line from the first point to the branch gives 4,900 km.

YFull

Most common among these peoples #

From YFull samples that gave a mother tongue: the part of a people's samples that falls into this branch. The list has peoples with at least 30 samples, 3 or more of them in this branch.

Sub-branches #

Sub-branches that have their own page (50 kits or more), as a tree: every direct one, nested ones from 1% of the branch's kits. The bar is the kits in the sub-branch with its own sub-branches; the age is when its common ancestor lived.

No sub-branch has its own page: only small branches lie below.

Also 1 small sub-branch of under 5 kits: 4 kits in all.

Sub-branches without a page #

Each of these sub-branches has fewer than 50 kits with a country, so none has its own page. Below are all with 5 or more kits, with their age and top countries.

How old the branch is, by source #

Each source's estimate on one scale, in years ago. A dot is the estimate, a bar its spread (a 95% interval for YFull); no bar means the source publishes no spread. The “common ancestor” rows show when the last common ancestor of all carriers lived, the “split” rows when the branch broke off from its parent. Discover does not estimate the split, so its row shows the age of the parent branch itself.

New this month #

FTDNA: how much the kit count grew between the tree copies of 2026-10-02 and 2026-11-02. A kit that moved to a new sub-branch after refinement is not counted as new. YFull: samples YFull itself marks as new, in the copy of 2026-11-02; YFull drops the mark after a few weeks.
