R-M420 R1a
R-M420 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 22,580 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: Poland (37% of kits), Isle of Man (36% of kits), Slovakia (35% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 17k years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 15k to 20k 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.
On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 35 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 745 distinct among 2,840 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%.
R1a: 6,229 samples. YFull publishes no age for this branch.
