Thank you for the advise, it has been a lot of help.  
I was able to import using the following method.
I already had the tunes stored in Google Drive for each groups with the 3 named folders .
I created the same named collections for each group.
I then Imported/Batch Import 
set up the file filter
selected the Collection I wanted to import to
Selected folders to import from at top
selected the same folder in Google Drive that I wanted to import from
press Start, at top, and it worked fine.
Just repeated that for each groups collections
Now all stored correctly in each collection and using just the single database.

Still a lot to learn but at least first hurdle overcome.
