How to set up a Running H/F to call a paratag from a previous file

The Running H/F in my master page calls for a paratag like this:
<Running H/F 2 <$paratext[H2 SubTitle]>
I have child pages (each a separate file) that use that same master
page, but because they are child pages, they don't have their own [H2
Sub Title] paratag anywhere in the file. I want that Running H/F to
locate the last instance of the paratag, which would be on the parent
page, which is in a previous file. In other words, I want it to look
backward instead of forward.
You can tell Frame to look backward for a paratag in the same file,
but I can't find any mention in Frame11 Help about looking backward
for a paratag in a previous file.
Is this even possible? If so, how do I revise the Running H/F 2 call
to that paratag so that it works as described?
If not, then I know I will need to move all of the child pages into
the same file as the parent page that contains the [H2 Sub Title]
paratag. But there are hundreds of them and I'd rather not.
