I think this is a timing issue. The higher numbered kids have not had their Ahnentafel number calculated yet when the problem family is included in the report.
I have referred this to the programmer because it will take a major rewrite of the way the report is produced to pre-scan and calculate Ahnentafel numbers for everyone in the report before starting to print the pages.
