R-L151 R1b-L151
Equivalent branches, the same kits: R-P310 (100,135 kits, 5,400 years)
R-L151 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 100,135 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: Ireland (78% of kits), England (Cornish) (76% of kits), Northern Ireland (73% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 5,100 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 4,400 to 5,800 years ago. The oldest of the equivalent branches, R-P310, split off about 5,400 years ago by Discover. YFull has 9,467 samples in this branch and dates its common ancestor to 4,800 years ago.

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. Peoples with at least 3 samples in the branch are listed.
Sub-branches #
Sub-branches that have their own page (50 kits or more). The bar is the kits in the sub-branch with its own sub-branches; the age is when its common ancestor lived.
4 small sub-branches more without a page: 8 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 9,095 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 3,897 distinct among 34,451 kits. FTDNA gives surnames per branch only, with no country attached, so they cannot be split by country.

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%.
R-L151: 9,467 samples. The common ancestor lived 4,800 years ago (4,300–5,300); the branch split off 5,500 years ago (5,000–5,700).
