Is from the Smith's or From The Smiths correct?
From the Smiths. It is a simple plural. You just add s. "The Smith's" (with an apostrophe) means "of or belonging to one Smith." We don't even refer to one person named Smith as "the Smith." No matter what anybody else tells you, this is true and correct information. SMITHS...NO APOSTROPHE.
Would you add an apostrophe s to Smiths if it is possessive?
Yes, you would add an apostrophe before the "s" to show possession. For example, "Smith's car" indicates that the car belongs to Smith.
How do you sign a card Love The Smith's or Love the Smiths'?
You would sign it without an apostrophe, because a plural does not usually need an apostrophe. So it would be: Love, the Smiths.
Would you use an apostrophe in the sentence Please meet the Smith's?
The Smiths in this case would simply be the plural of Smith. So there would be NO apostrophe. Plural, meaning both persons as a married couple: Please meet the Smiths. The Smiths were away when their house was robbed. Plural Singular The robber took the Smith's television. The Smith's home owners policy covered the theft. IF you had a large meeting for all families named Smith, the simple plural would also be Smiths. However, for plural possessive, you'd first have Smiths with an apostrophe added, like this: All the Smiths from Washington, DC attended a city-wide picnic. While there, all the Smiths' (s apostrophe) cars were vandalized. The picnic's promoters, the Browns, were doubly embarrassed; none of the Browns' (s apostrophe) cars were damaged. If you have more than one person of a surname, just add 's'-- unless the name ends in s. (Smiths) If you have more than one person of a surname, so you add s, to make it possessive, add apostrophe after the plural s. (Smiths' coats... Smiths' cars... Smiths' cellphones...)

The correct punctuation is: "The meeting will be held at the Smiths'." The apostrophe comes after the "s" to show possession by a plural noun.
