I tested quite some time ago and still don't understand a lot of this. Mostly I've been exploring the Family Finder results. Your mention of this prompted me to go look again at my MtDNA results. I have 10 extra mutations and one missing mutation. As far as the MtDNA results, I have only one match--a young man whose mother's family has been in an area of central Portugal for as far back as they remember. So it certainly predates my ancestors moving to the Azores.
