A numeric suffix always comes before an alphabetic suffix.

Rule 6: Prefixes – Articles and Particles
A foreign article or particle in a personal or business name is combined with the part of the name following it to form a single indexing unit.

Examples of articles and particles: D’ Angelo De la Rosa El’ Rosa
L’ Costa St. Louis Van de Mere

Cross-References - Business Names
Cross-referencing for the following types of business names:
Popular and Coined names Hyphenated names Divisions and Subsidiaries Changed names Similar names
![Page 20: OST184 Records Management](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/56812bd6550346895d9041f9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Cross-Referencing - Business Names Popular or Coined Names Often a business is know by its popular and/or coined name.
![Page 21: OST184 Records Management](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/56812bd6550346895d9041f9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Cross-Referencing - Business Names Hyphenated NamesJust as in personal names, business surnames with hyphens need to be cross-referenced for each surname combination.
![Page 22: OST184 Records Management](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/56812bd6550346895d9041f9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cross-referencing Divisions and Subsidiaries
When one company is a subsidiary or a division or brand of another company, the name appearing on the letterhead of the branch or subsidiary is the one indexed on the original record.
A cross-reference is made under the name of the parent company.
![Page 23: OST184 Records Management](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/56812bd6550346895d9041f9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Cross-referencing Changed Names
If only a few records are already in storage, they are usually “refiled” under the new name, and the former name is marked as a cross-reference.
If many records are filed under the former name, a permanent cross-reference is placed at the beginning of the records for the former name. Any new records are placed under the new name.
![Page 24: OST184 Records Management](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/56812bd6550346895d9041f9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Cross-referencing Similar Names
If a name could be considered either as one or two units, it is a good candidate for a cross-reference.
A SEE ALSO cross-reference is used to remind the filer to check the files for other possible spellings.
The completebusiness name is notcross-referenced; only the similarname.
