's and s' are possessive forms that you add to the end of nouns. You use 's for normal nouns and names like Jack's, Sarah's, Paul's, someone's. To use s', it's the plural possessive form that you add to the end of a plural noun such as: groups', dogs', cats'. This is not also used as a singular possessive form for nouns and names that end with "s" such as: James and Jesus. You must still use 's for these cases ie: that boat is Jesus's, that car is James's. You can hear the difference orally the 's is pronounced for names ending in s. For plural possessive you can hear only the s and it is written s'. Ie. my three cats have string, its the cats' string.
It is also very important to note that 's is NOT used to make ordinary nouns plural. Most nouns are made plural simply by adding s to the word. The plural of cat is cats. I saw three cats. When a word ends in s, usually it is made plural with es. I own a business. I own three businesses. He set out three glasses. Some words, like family and story, become plural by changing the y to ies: families, stories.
