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: 8 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 4,144 distinct among 37,382 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-P297: 11,138 samples. The common ancestor lived 14k years ago (12k–15k); the branch split off 16k years ago (14k–18k).
