There has been a small change in social convention over the past decade. The appropriate address, in traditional circles would be: Mr and Mrs John Doe Jr.

However, it is now an acceptable address, outside of more traditional societies to address your letter as John and Mary Doe Jr.

When there is a hyphenated name, such as when a spouse has elected to retain her married name, the form would be:

Mr. John Doe Jr

Ms. Mary Smith-Doe, Jr.
