I want to have a link referencing on the home page and go to that paragraph on a different page. I have tried the (a name) any ideas. Everything I have tried only takes me to the page in reference. Thanks in advance.

And in the link you should use <a href="page_to_link_to.html#section_name">Link Name</a> The #section_name in the URL tells the browser to go to the location of the <a name="section_name">
