R-U106 R1b-U106
R-U106 is a branch of the FamilyTreeDNA Y tree with 25,565 kits that gave a country, counting all sub-branches. It is most common in these samples: Belgium (Flanders) (30% of kits), Netherlands (27% of kits), France (Alsace) (22% of kits). The branch's common ancestor lived about 5,000 years ago: the FTDNA Discover estimate runs from 4,400 to 5,700 years ago. YFull has 2,296 samples in this branch and dates its common ancestor to 4,600 years ago.
Where it is found #

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.
1 small sub-branch more without a page: 21 kits. On the branch itself, without a resolved sub-branch: 3,291 kits.
Surnames #
Surnames that testers entered at FTDNA, over the whole branch with its sub-branches: 1,338 distinct among 7,709 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-U106: 2,296 samples. The common ancestor lived 4,600 years ago (4,000–5,300); the branch split off 4,800 years ago (4,300–5,300).
