Surnames
I have came to some indivisuals with several Last names & I would like to know what would be the correct Surname Be. Example is ( K4B3-PJ6 ) for the parents.

I'm not aware of any specific rule for how to handle it but my thought would be to handle it just like the name changes for a woman who marries. That is, list him by his name at birth and be sure to add his surname change(s) as alternate name(s). It might also be helpful to add a note in the collaboration page detailing any name changes.

Since your person is from Westphalia, you may also be dealing with farm names. See

for more details on this naming practice.
