A manual page break will always take on the style of the following
paragraph. You can format the heading paragraph as "Page break before"
instead.

I have tried removing the Heading 1 style from the entire document, and
then
changing the style of the paragraphs I want to affect. I am changing the
style by putting the cursor in the middle of the paragraph, and then
selecting Heading 1 from the Styles and Formatting Pane.
I have also tried selecting the preceding page break and making sure it is
the normal style. I have formatting marks turned on, so I don't select
anything by accident. Is there some way to fine tune my selection?

Sounds like the heading style has been applied to the section break or
the
paragraph preceding it.
