I use the same type of SQL here at work. We have an EMPLOYEE table with emp_id as the primary key and sup_emp_id as a column which identifies the employees' supervisor, which is very similiar to a son and father relationship. However, when we search the hierarchy, we always start from the supervisor and search downward. This basically gets all employees that reside within the reporting structure for a given supervisor. In our case, we start from the top of a hierarchy, which is the reverse, I believe, to what you are performing because you are starting with a leaf and getting the hierarchy in reverse, but the concept is still the same. Here is the query we use. I'm sure you can adjust it to work in the context of your problem.
