So if you're addressing the Smith family, you should write, "Dear Smiths" (simply add an "s" to make it plural, just as you would for "blacksmith"). If you're addressing the Jones family, you should write, "Dear Joneses" (add "es" as you would to "glass" or any other word ending in "s").

PluralIf referring to something about the Smith family as two or more, it would be the plural Smiths. Ex.

(bold is plural, the other two are possessive)Johnny is one of the Smiths living on Second Street.A roofer discovered that raccoons were living in the Smiths' attics and promptly told the Smiths about the various health and safety risks associated with removing the animals.

What is the correct use of the apostrophe for a sign that reads Future Home Of ... Family's last name?
The use of apostrophes in last names is no different from their use in any other word. If you are referring to a house to belong to a family named "Smith," the sign would read "The Future Home of the Smiths." No apostrophe: it is merely a plural noun. If the phrase were "The Smiths' Home," that apostrophe is correct because you're using the plural possessive: the house belongs to more than one Smith. People who write things like "The Smith's" are incorrect (as was the previous answer to this question). General Point If you indicate possession by using of you musn't also use 's or s'.
