Haplogroup designations for the samples are contained in long format per ISOGG haplotree format HERE. These long format destinations are a bit unwieldy; however, 3 of the samples are S658+ just downstream of M222 and one of the three is DF109+ (VK545).
What is interesting is that in a Facebook group post HERE Göran Runström who works for Family Tree DNA says they are incorporating the all samples from the study into their Haplotree today. In fact, they have so far had cases where samples have created new sub-branches and are even matching private variants of some men tested today.
Here are some of his posts:
FTDNA is downloading and processing these results right now so we should start seeing the first ancient/modern pair branches on the haplotree in a few days.
First ancient-modern pairing that will form a new branch on the haplotree under T-Y22559:
VK17 - Russia_Ladoga_5680-17 - Ladoga, Ladoga, Russia - Viking 10-12th centuries CE (Margaryan 2020)
Modern match is from Chechen Republic.

Nice branch assignment in R1a-BY202785 with a high coverage ancient sample from Faroe Islands:
VK46 - Faroe_19 - Church2, Faroes, Faroes - Early modern 16-17th centuries CE (Margaryan 2020)
He fits perfectly on this ca 1000 year old branch with one man with origins from Scotland and another man with unspecified origins.

here are some R1b connections:
VK40 - Sweden_Skara 106 - Varnhem, Skara, Sweden - Viking 10-12th centuries CE (Margaryan 2020)
Forms a new branch under R-BY1701 (down in U152) with an American customer with unknown paternal origins. They share a good number of private SNPs.
VK25 - Faroe_1 - Church2, Faroes, Faroes - Early modern 16-17th centuries CE (Margaryan 2020)
Splits R-BY11762, a ca 1,500 year old branch in R-L151.
Additionally,Because we have a much more refined tree than ISOGG when it comes to modern branches and can also compare against the private SNPs of some ~49,000 Big Y results plus thousands of academic samples, we can often assign a much more specific haplogroup than in the papers, even with lower coverage ancient samples.
- James Kane who operates the Y-DNA Data Warehouse plans to do his own analysis on the RAW data
- People have request Yfull to incorporate the samples which they have a track record doing
- Some people have made Alex Williamson aware of this and he is likely looking into processing them so hopefully they will appear in the Big Tree
