The abbreviation Jr. (short for junior) uses a period, just like any other abbreviation. There is usually also a comma between the junior and the last name, i.e., John Smith, Jr.
John Doe has a son also called John Doe. In these circumtances, the father is often called John Doe, Senior (Sr) and the son John Doe, Junior (Jr). If John Doe, Junior also has a son called John Doe the son might be called John Doe III.
It can be written down as John Smith, Ph.D., - traditionally or John Smith Ph.D. - in recent writing (you may refer to The Chicago Manual of Style (1993) 15th edition where they recommend not to use any comma at all.)

It's confusing so here goes:If the father's father's name is John Smith and has a son they call John Smith Jr., then it makes the son's father John Smith, Sr.If John Smith Jr., has a son and calls him John Smith, Jr., then it's 'John Smith Jr. II, but if John Smith Jr., calls his son Timothy Smith then there is no Jr. II behind it. Junior is only applied when the first and last name is the same of the father of the child.
John Doe has a son also called John Doe. In these circumtances, the father is often called John Doe, Senior (Sr) and the son John Doe, Junior (Jr). If John Doe, Junior also has a son called John Doe the son might be called John Doe III.

It means that they have named their child after them. For example If John Smith named his son John, he would now be called John Smith Sr. and his son would be named John Smith Jr. Sr. stands for senior and Jr. junior
Etiquette has come to be more casual in society and you could write John Jr. & Mary Doe, but the proper way is Mr. & Mrs. John Jr.
Example: John Smith M.A.Example: John Smith M.A.Example: John Smith M.A.Example: John Smith M.A.Example: John Smith M.A.Example: John Smith M.A.
At the end of the name Mr. and Mrs. John Smith, Jr.
The roman numeral indicates how many times that name has been reused in a bloodline. For example, if John Smith names his son John Smith, then the son will be named John Smith Jr. Now, if John Smith Jr. names his son John Smith, then the son will be named John Smith III (the third), and so on and so forth. In the minds of many, using Roman numerals adds "class" to the name.
