  Could anyone help me with more info on the following group?

  The Servants of Yah
  [1925 - ???]

  Probably the strangest of all Bible Student groups. Headquartered in Brooklyn, NY, and led by C.H. Zook, they believed that Satan's name was Jehovah, so that Jehovah's Witnesses were really Witnesses of Satan. They are Universalist, who deny armageddon, the flood, water baptism, the ransom, restitution, etc. They had branches in Levittown, New York and Vienna, Austria. They believe that only 144,000 are destined to discover the hidden meaning of the scriptures and enter heaven. The meaning is hidden partly because they believe that our Bible texts were altered. They see the Bible as primarily prophecy, most of which relates to the present century. They believe that everyone who ever lived will live forever on a paradise earth except the 144,000 who live in heaven. This group also dwindled to non-existence.

  The most recent discussion of this (more an aside than a topic) on JWD that I can recall is at http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/9/129125/1.ashx

  Laymen's Home Missionary Movement Epiphany Bible Students Association Laodicean Home Missionary Movement Pastoral Bible Institute, Inc. Watchers of the Morning Dawn Bible Students Association Christian Millennial Fellowship, Inc. Stand Fast Bible Students Association Elijah Voice Society Servants of Yah Bible Fellowship Union New Jerusalem Fellowship Old Paths Publications Forest Gate Church Bible Students Publishing Company Goshen Fellowship Institute of Pyramidology Angel of Jehovah Bible and Tract Society Berean Bible Institute New Covenant Fellowship Christian Truth Institute New Covenant Believers Associated Bible Students

  Wow! That's quite a list. I've gotten materials from a couple of these groups, and was aware of a couple of others (like the Standfasters), but not with any detailed knowledge.

  Was one of these the group that PSL Johnson started?
