Section 1 cannot start on page 2.*
References:
Each section
* in a Word document will have three sets of headers and footers:
- The primary header and footer set.
- The first-page header and footer set. (triggered by the different-first-page setting)
- The even-page header and footer set. (triggered by the different odd and even setting)
Those three header/footer sets will be present in every section, even if you do not have them displayed or set. Each header/footer set is independent of the others in the same section. A single page can have multiple sections, each with its own three sets of headers and footers.
The setting "
Different First Page " is section setting that applies to both he header and footer as a unit. If a new section is created it will use the same setting for this as was in use in the previous section by default. It can be changed in the header/footer tools tab for that section. These are separate headers and footers from the primary ones, the ones that continue on the other pages.

The setting for
different odd and even is for the entire document. Changing it in one section, changes it for all. Again, it applies to both headers and footers; it activates display of this separate set of headers and footers on even-numbered pages. The primary header-footer set is then displayed on odd-numbered pages.

If you have multiple sections, in each section each header and footer can be
linked to the previous section's similar header/footer or not. Thus each section after the first has six settings for link to previous, one for each header and each footer. When a new section is created, all of its headers and footers will be linked to those in the previous section. That can be changed by the user. Again, there are six link-to-previous settings for each section after the first.

Linked headers/footers means that what is there in one section is there in all linked sections. Each section can have six link to previous settings. The first-page header in section 2 can be linked to the first-page header in section1. This is independent of the link to previous setting for the first-page footer.
The
StyleRef field can be used to change what shows in each header or footer depending on the content in the body where that header/footer is displayed. That way it can appear that you have different headers/footers throughout your document when in fact it is a single header/footer or linked.
* When talking about Word documents, the term "section" is jargon for a particular part of a document. it is not the same as a logical section like a chapter, although many users have each chapter as a separate Word section. A Word section is a structure that holds formatting of the page layout including headers/footers, margins, layout and columns. You can have more than one section on a single page.
