Default Sorting groups of multiple rows

I have a table I am using as a receipt book, I am using for summer camp
payment. I enter the receipts as I get them and each receipt is about 8 rows
and 15 columns of information.

1) I would like to be able to sort these receipts by name, however I can't
figure out how to group each receipt so that when it sorts the receipt stays
together as opposed to sorting each individual row and intermixing all my
receipts.

2) I would also like to sum up the number of adults vs. kids. I have each
number in a separate cell in each receipt. I would like to write a formula
that says add each number in the cell that is the fourth one over and third
one down in each receipt without having to =SUM(A3+A10+A20+A30 and so on, as
I have over a hundred receipts this could get insanely tedious.

Thanks for any help you can give on either of these problems.
