[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please let me know the best way to address mail to the family?

For instance  if sending to the family of Jane Smith and John Miller should I write:
 The Smith-Miller Family
or
  The Miller-Smith Family

I have several friends where wife kept maiden name that we send Christmas cards to and I never know if I am addressing them appropriately.  Thanks.

The Family of Jane Smith and John Miller?

What if the kids are Millers? Is it then Miller family and Jane Smith?

Wouldn't Miller-Smith Family mean their names are hyphenated? Would it be Miller and Smith Family? [/quote]

We go by the Miller-Smith Family (or the Smith-Miller Family, I don't think the order matters).  People don't seem to be confused at all.  And that's how I send out cards to families where the parents have different last names.  If they have kids, it's the Smith-Miller Family.  If they don't have kids, I write John Smith & Jane Miller.
