1. I don't want the parent group members to be automatically added to the subgroups. Is this a setting I can turn on/off? If so, where/how?
Parent groups members are NOT automatically added to subgroups. The people already there now are those that were added via the transfer operation.

2. Is there a way to clear all these emails out of the "Direct Add" so that it's blank and I can directly add people myself? (Perhaps that'll be fixed by question 1...)
No.

All members of a subgroup must be members of the parent group, too. As a corollary to this, there is no way to Direct Add someone from outside your group directly into a subgroup. You have to Direct Add them to the parent group first...after that's completed, you can then Direct Add them to the subgroup.?

You can, however, Invite someone directly to a subgroup. When that person accepts the invitation, he will automatically be added to BOTH the primary group and the subgroup.
