Our Cook(e) YDNA Path : Comparing Y700 results with FTDNA's Estimate from an Uploaded Autosomal of the Y Tester's Brother

Below is the path of my youngest brother's results. He tested as a direct male descendant of Wm Clifford Cook(1811-1882) our 2nd Great Grandfather -- a brick wall of our Cook research.

YDNA Haplogroup Path: Descendant of Wm C Cook(1811-1882) Bedford Co., TN, USA

R-M269    --Descendants of Wm Tryon Patterson, Wm Cook(e), and Shem Cooke(1722-1796 Granville NC)
R-L23 
R-L51
R-P310
R-L151 --Wm Cooke b 1740 Surry Co Descendant
R-P312
R-Z46516
R-ZZ11
R-U152
R-L2
R-Z258
R-Z367   --(Carroll Co TN Roland Cooke Descend(Thru Shem's son James)
R-Z34  --Hunt Surname NPE;  My brother, David's estimated Haplogroup
R-Z33
R-BY164497
R-BY3604
R-Z256
R-Z275 -- (Shem Cooke--Carroll Co GA Descend thru Roland B Cooke;  Cook with unk path
R-CTS7352 My Brother at the Y500 Level
R-BY72556 --My Brother Y700 (Wm Clifford Cook descendant thru Wm Green Cook; Patterson who descends from Wm Tryon Patterson w/ Carroll Co GA connected Y Line.

We started out with the R-M269 and it stayed there with upgrades until I could purchase a BigY test.  I have placed several others I have identified in his match list to visualize where they are within the path.  I also included my other brother's estimated Haplogroup which FamilyTreeDNA notified me about this past week.  It is one of the haplogroups that FTDNA has estimated from an uploaded autosomal DNA test. I had expected that he estimated Haplogroup would be R-M269 but it was more precise.  I'm not complaining.

If you have a connection to Cook(e)s from  Granville, Wake or Warren Co NC or the Carroll Co GA or Carroll Co TN Cook(e) please consider testing now or when they have their next YDNA sale at FamilyTreeDNA  If you have tested or have a family member who has tested you both should consider joining the Cook(e)-Koch DNA Project
