The standard FTDNA reports for STRs and SNPs can be seen under the DNA Results tab at top left.
TMRCA table

Bruce surname frequency and populations
This data was sourced around 2019 from...
Populations: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_dependencies_by_population
Top 10 Bruce frequencies by Country: http://worldnames.publicprofiler.org
Frequency for the 'rest of the world' is guestimated at 0.5 per million.
Current project member count is roughly 0.2% of the global Bruce population.
It seems that Monty Python was correct about Bruce!

Phylogenetic (TMRCA) Trees
These trees show the Time to Most Recent Common male Ancestor of our members.
Branch lengths show the relative TMRCA between members, and between groups of members.

McGee's Y-111 tool was used, with FTDNA mutation rates, Hybid model, 75% probability.
The output (TMRCA data) was passed to Kitsch to build the probable tree, then graphed with MEGA.
