Ages of snps can not directly be measured (estimated), only bracketed between earlier and later tree nodes which can be age estimated.

Thanks Ken. Needless to say I am a proselyte in the world of SNPs but determined to test every available SNP downstream of Z59. Currently waiting on Z60 and hoping to eventually gain a better understanding of L803. I was also interested in tMRCA of Z63 and Z59 but if I'm reading your tree correctly that would have to be a heck of a long time ago! Thanks for all you do for I1, Ken. Let's hope 2012 sees more organized and robust testing of key I1 SNPs and also faster availability of new ones in the FTDNA catalogue!
