Since it isn't 100% positive that Sylvester is her maiden name, you will follow this from the Surname Field Help (purple question mark above the field):
The surname may be written either before or after the given names. Be sure to type the names in the correct fields in the data entry area. If you cannot determine if a name is a given name or a surname, type it in the Given Names field.
This will be index as follows:
Prefix: Mrs.
Given Name: Evelyn Sylvester
Surname: Knowles2
