We know nothing about YOUR family.  In the family, you can set individual model elements to show up in plan at various detail levels or not at all.  The same for elevation / section views.  And you can use annotation lines in elevation or plan views when model elements are not shown.  The family can be created in different categories which can be controlled independently in each view.  The family can be created in the project in different phases, different worksets and different design options and each of these items can be controlled in each view.

So perhaps the above gives you some places to look or you can narrow our focus.

Your visibility settings all seem to be correct.  This may be a 2014 issue so I suggest you send it to Autodesk.

BTW - Your geometry does not line up with this end piece and the sketch path line is at some obtuse angle that isn't obvious.  Maybe that contributes to the problem.
