The faces for these people may have been split across several people albums. Help Photos to get them merged into one album. If you know of a photo with the face of one of these people, look at the photo enlarged, with the option "View > Show Face Names" enabled. This way you will see circles around each and every face detected by Photos. If Photos has detected a face, you enter the name directly in the field below the faces circle. After naming one more face of the person, check in the People album, if Photos created a second album for this person. If yes, drag this second album onto the first album. Then try again the "Confirm additional faces".
