Hi David.  The first thing to realize is that POSIX permissions and 
Windows ACLs are almost impossible to reconcile.  Best to pick one and 
ignore the other.

https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html has additional information.

To set your group you should do it in /etc/passwd.
If you don't have one, do: mkpasswd > /etc/passwd

Then edit the file and change the 4th field on the line with your 
username to the group Id for Users.

david:*:123456:197153:
->
david:*:123456:545:

Then restart ALL Cygwin processes and id should show Users as your 
primary group.  Any files created by a Windows process however will 
still put None as the group.

Hope that helps.


Thanks.
