The Y chromosome is passed from father to son remaining mostly unaltered across generations, except for small traceable changes in DNA. By tracking these changes, we constructed a family tree of humankind where all male lineages trace back to a single common ancestor who lived hundreds of thousands of years ago. This human tree allows us to explore lineages through time and place and to uncover the modern history of your direct paternal surname line and the ancient history of our shared ancestors.
The J-YSC0000234 Story
J-YSC0000234's paternal line was formed when it branched off from the ancestor J-Z27715 and the rest of mankind around 3600 BCE.
J-Z27715
3600 BCE
J-YSC0000234
3350 BCE
This date is an estimate based on genetic information only. With a 95% probability, the ancestor J-Z27715 was born between the years 4418 and 2910 BCE. The most likely estimate is 3614 BCE, rounded to 3600 BCE.
This estimate will likely change in the future as more people test and we improve the method.
The Scientific Details section contains more information.
The man who is the most recent common ancestor of this line is estimated to have been born around 3350 BCE.
J-Z27715
3600 BCE
J-YSC0000234
3350 BCE
This date is an estimate based on genetic information only. With a 95% probability, the most recent common ancestor of all members of haplogroup J-YSC0000234 was born between the years 4132 and 2691 BCE. The most likely estimate is 3363 BCE, rounded to 3350 BCE.
This estimate will likely change in the future as more people test and we improve the method.
The Scientific Details section contains more information.
He is the ancestor of at least 8 descendant lineages known as J-L858, J-FGC4745, J-ZS241, J-M11522, J-FTA91959 and 3 yet unnamed lineages.

Descendant lineages are identified as people test their Y-DNA with the Big Y test. At least two testers from a lineage are needed for a new branch to be named and added to the tree.
There are 19,687 DNA tested descendants, and they specified that their earliest known origins are from:
This information is self-reported by FamilyTreeDNA participants. It represents the earliest known countries of origin on their direct paternal lines.
You can update your information in your FamilyTreeDNA Account Settings: Genealogy: Earliest Known Ancestors.

Every new Big Y test result helps improve the tree structure and age estimates. A popular genealogy strategy is to expand your part of the tree by encouraging distant relatives to test.
The exact number of generations between J-Z27715 and J-YSC0000234 is unknown.
