Remarks	When a woman's name is represented as her husband's name extended with the suffix -né, then the husband's family name and given name are parsed into the Family Name and Given Name tokens (see example 1). If a woman's name contains her maiden family name, then the woman's maiden name and given name are parsed into Family Name and Given Name, and the husband's name is parsed into the Marriage Name token (example 2). If a woman's name appears with the woman's maiden name and the husband's name, and the husband's name has a title or generational indicator, the husband's title or generational indicator is parsed into the Marriage Name token along with the rest of the husband's name (example 2). If the title appears between the husband's name and a woman's maiden name, the title is considered to apply to the woman, and is therefore parsed into the Prefix token (example 2). Generational indicator words appearing with a man's name are always parsed into the Prefix token (example 3).
