Thanks to Godfrey BigY testing, a new subclade of Z2534 (a SNP directly below Z253, in Haplogroup R) was discovered, containing these SNPs in common between the two Godfrey BigY testers: FGC41891, FGC41892, 6912825T>G, FGC41894, FGC41896, FGC41897, FGC41898, FGC41899, FGC41900, FGC41901, FGC41902, FGC48205, FGC41903, FGC41904, FGC41906, FGC41907, FGC41908, FGC41909, FGC41911, PF5101, FGC48207, FGC41919, FGC41912, FGC41913, FGC48208, FGC41914, FGC41915, YP4465, FGC48210, FGC41916, FGC41917, F3590, FGC48197, FGC48203, FGC48209, FGC48211,  FGC48212, FGC48215

One Godfrey BigY also discovered the following SNPs so far unique to his lineage: FGC41893, FGC41895, FGC41890, FGC41905, FGC41910, FGC41918 
The other Godfrey BigY discovered the following SNPs so far unique to his lineage: FGC48202, FGC48206, 23145061G>C

If you are positive for any of these SNPs through SNP testing and are not in the project, please contact Dave (dnaaficionado @ gmail.com) for more information, as your results may be important for shedding light on this branch.
