Key branches tree #

Tree of the main branches by YFull samples. Each branch includes all samples of its sub-branches; sub-branches are indented. Branches of at least 1% of the sample are shown; branches that only pass one child through are skipped. Age is how many years ago the branch's common ancestor lived (TMRCA), from FTDNA.

mt-branch tree #

Tree of the mt branches by YFull samples, grouped by letter. Each branch includes all samples of its sub-branches; sub-branches are indented. Branches of at least 1% of the sample are shown; branches that only pass one child through are skipped. Age is how many years ago the branch's common foremother lived (TMRCA), from FTDNA.

Distinctive branches of the people · Y #

Branches this people carries 3 or more times as often as all YFull customers together. The multiplier is in brackets. Branches of at least 5 samples are included.

  • R1a-Z94 R-Z94: 5 · 16.1% (×8.9)
  • R1a-Z93 R-Z93: 5 · 16.1% (×7.7)

Branches by subgroup #

Each subgroup gets its own tree. Shares are out of that subgroup's samples. Subgroups with fewer than 5 samples are left out.

Migration paths of the characteristic branches #

Paths of the people's main characteristic branches, from YFull samples that report this native language, as modelled by FamilyTreeDNA Discover, on one calendar clock: in each year a branch stands where its ancestral line was. A branch's share is of the people's samples. Grey is a stretch of path shared by several branches; the large marker is the branch itself.
