How much information to include as "suffix" to the name of the individual
George Walton Smith (name I made up) (L.S.)
Judge of Probate
When reviewing a written record, do I include the L.S. and the Judge of Probate as a suffix to the person's name? Thanks!

L.S. in reference to a judge could go in the suffix but "Judge of Probate" would go into "Title". Hope that helps.

@J. Britt Franklin I realise I didn't ask which collection this relates to, could you tell us please? Thanks.

L S is neither title nor suffix.
http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/L.S.L.S.
An abbreviation for locus sigilli, Latin for "the place of the seal," signifying the place within a written contract where a seal is affixed in order to bind the agreement.
Since the use of seals is decreasing, the use of this abbreviation has declined.

My error re L.S. Sorry. L.S. does not get recorded and "judge of Probate" is a title but cannot be put in in Quick name Review
