I've gone back to the 'book' class from the 'memoir' class because I
cannot clear a page number from the title page on the latter. Doesn't matter
to me which class definition I use as long as I understand how to remove the
little glitches. Which brings me to the reason for this message.

  Immediately after my name (as author), I have this:

\pagestyle{empty}
\clearpage
%% Contents of copyright page
\clearpage
\pagenumbering{roman}
\setcounter{page}{1}
%% Table of Contents -- done by LyX
Preface %% Un-numbered chapter
%% preface contents
\pagenumbering{arabic}
Introduction %% Part # -- done by LyX
Background %% Chapter 1 -- done by LyX

  When I view the dvi output, I see that the first page of the ToC is
marked, i, but the second page has no page number. The Preface page is
numbered, iii.

  The page reading, "Part 1  Introduction", is numbered, 1. There is a blank
page and the next recto page is "Chapter 1  Background" with a page number
of 3.

  This is not what I want; at least, I don't think that's what I want. I
thought that the second page of the ToC should be numbered "ii", the "Part"
page should have no number, and the first page of "Chapter 1" should be
numbered "1".

  I tried '\setcounter{page}{1}' just before the chapter title, and that
does reset the page number to 1. However, the "Part " page is still marked
with a "1".

  Thanks for helping me to learn.
