Assuming that everything else is reconciled, all you really need to do is add the missing transactions and re-reconcile. Ignore the starting balance, and enter the same closing balance as your last statement. Those three items will appear in the reconciliation window, you check them off, and everything is back. Nothing too difficult. David P.S. how in goodness did you discover that you were missing three transactions from 2015 that all balanced out?

You may find that you also need to re-reconcile other months or "indulge" in some creative temporary offsetting transactions to get August or September reconciliations to end with the correct ending balance. I have not tried that sort of thing in a couple of years, so my experience is very stale. Starting balances do not need to match your statements, as there is no way to view which month any particular transaction was actually reconciled to.
