You use it when your calling someone, or naming more than one thing. Bur\t, for example the name 'Mr.Byrnes'; when you are saying about their stuff, like " I gave Mr. Byrnes' book back" then you put a apostrophe in front of s. In this case you are not. Happy to help! :)
The apostrophe S ('s) is used to show a singular possessive as in the example above, and to show contractions of verbs containing is such as "he's" or "there's."
