Just remember that Sr and the First did not come with birth of the person but with the birth of the son.

They came with the birth. Brian From: Cathy Pinner [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, November 27, 2015 5:40 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Entering multiple title suffixes It's up to you whether you want a name to read Joe Bloggs Jr. M.D. or not. Personally, I don't enter anything in the Title or Suffix field (except notes in privacy brackets eg to quickly identify someone when I have several with the same name) unless the person was born with that Title or Suffix. I add degrees and honours in Events. To me it doesn't make sense to make a practice of entering the birth name, which is standard practice - and then add titles and suffixes that came later.
