In the figure above, White sets up on and around Face 1 (the front of the large cube), while Black sets up on and around Face 24 (the back of the small cube)

These would be what I'm calling 11 and 06.

Adjacent to each side of the Home Face are two more Faces; these eight are the Territory Faces.

So, you're saying that each side is individually adjacent to two more faces, and since each face has four sides, it has eight adjacent faces.

For White, these are Faces 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10;

These would be what I'm calling 12, 13, 14, 15, 22, 33, 44, and 55. However, I'm not sure how these labels would match yours.

for Black, they're 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22, and 23.)

These would be what I'm calling 02, 03, 04, 05, 26, 36, 46, and 56. Again, I don't know the exact correspondence with your labels.

On the edge of the Face adjacent to the Home Face,

I think you mean "On the adjacent edge of each Face that is adjacent to the Home Face,".
