 G  (n = 2 / 1) I1 (n = 4 / 2 ) R1b (n = 14 / 6)

Haplogroup G is relatively uncommon (about 2.5% of tested Europeans).  G2a is not well understood, but is believed to have originated in Central Asia, then to have spread to the Middle East.  From there, it became widespread in Europe during the Neolithic.  The G2a subclade is found occasionally among Scandinavians.

We have two matching members who are Haplogroup G.  One of them has been deep SNP tested with the result that he is Haplogroup G2a.

Mutations in boldface are potentially tested by FTDNA in their Deep Clade-G suite of SNP tests ($79).  Note that they only test the SNPs that are logically necessary for any given individual, which is not a bad thing because it helps keep down the price of determining your subclade.  FTDNA also offers a Misc-G panel that includes L13, L14, M283, and M406 ($109).  EthnoAncestry offers a Haplogroup G SNP package that includes M201, M285, P20, P15, P16, P18, M286, M287, M377, S126, S130, S131, S132, S133, S134, and S135 ($249 — or $199 for returning customers).

Red labels indicate markers that typically mutate more frequently than those labeled in black. Marker 464 mutates most rapidly of all and sometimes has five to seven counts (a-g), not just four (a-d).
(Empty cells that are darkened indicate tests not ordered.)

Our subjects have a few matches at 12 markers (in other surnames), but at 25-markers or higher, their haplotype is unique, matching only each other.  These test results support that Philip CORBIN of Danbury, CT, is closely related to (and most likely descended from) Clement CORBIN of Woodstock, CT.  Your project admin would like to encourage #36850 to upgrade his testing to 67 markers, so we can see just how closely these two are related.
Member #76227 has been deep SNP tested, with these results:
M201+ P15+ M285- M342- P20- M286- M287- M377- 
M201+ proves he is Haplogroup G; P15+ proves he is Haplgroup G2a.  The negative results for the other SNPs redundantly support that he was not any other subclade of G at the time he was tested.
   

What constitutes a match?
Matches in other surnames are usually mere coincidence, so please ignore them — I'll let you know when you shouldn't!
For 12 markers:  8 or less is a non-relative; 9-10 means only a small chance of a relationship; 11-12 means a possible relationship.
For 25 markers:  20 or less is a non-relative; 21-22 means only a small chance of a relationship; 23-25 means a possible relationship.
For 37 markers:  30 or less is a non-relative; 31-37, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For 67 markers:  55 or less is a non-relative; 58-67, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For any test:  0 matching markers, please contact NASA.
