Patricia, I'm also included in the J group and one of it is subdivisions; I have done the Full Sequence for my mtDNA one year ago and did not find a single match until today. We are a very small part of the Azores population, around 5.48%, based on a study done a few years ago. If you are interested in the study, email me privately. My earliest ancestor is from 1679, in Terceira Island.
