What's Under the Chapter?

I have a small question, does anyone know what the names at the bottom state? Why are they there? Do you think you know? Please comment.

  1. After reading some chapters over and over again, I realized that the names under the chapters are stating who the chapter is revolved around. For example, in the chapter "The Kiss", I saw that for some time, it was about Sofia and her father's conflict between eachother. They also talk about a lot of her history (durring her adult life).

  2. I think the names are under the chapters because since the book is a memoir dealing with an entire family, it specifies which member of the family the partocular story/memory will be important to and who it is mainly affecting. I also notuced that when there is only a single name, the chapter will be narrated by that character. So throughout the book, the narrator changes and also goes from first to third person at times.
