Probably a stupid question but should 'jr' be added to the given names or not?

No stupid questions. Jr. is a suffix and if you are doing directories, there is no suffix field. So you do not index Jr.

3 persons living at the same address with 3 separate names. Do I index them in the succession they are listed? It seems to make 3 separate entries.

Yes, you will index them. Addresses are not used in directory projects.
