It can be acceptable to have just an apostrophe after a name that ends in an ‘s’.

I have always known St Thomas’ Hospital to be so spelled, and it remains so to this day in official NHS literature.

The rule appears to be that if there are two sounds of s one writes s’s or else one writes “s’ “.

In fact there is St Thomas’ Hospital http://www.togetherwecan.org.uk/guys-thomas-hospitals/who-we-are/guys-thomas-hospitals/?gclid=CMrE1cnhvbwCFc_MtAodXgIAPQ

The writing of “Moses’ ” is also found in Biblical texts. http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+18&version=ERV

No t’ai chi for me.

I will carry this name tag.

Apparently, the exceptions being classical names such as Archimedes or Socrates, and names ending in ‘ses’ like Ulysses and Moses.

After some research, I’m not any smarter.

I think it should be Moses’.

[Daphne – Here we go again. No, it should not be Moses’. It should be Moses’s, and it is pronounced Mow-Sis-Is and not Mos-Is. The apostrophe which signifies the possessive form is, with nouns, not followed by an s only in the plural. A proper noun (names of places and people) can by definition not be in the plural, therefore it takes the form of an apostrophe followed by an ‘s’. The rule on whether to put an ‘s’ or not after the apostrophe is not related to whether there is a final ‘s’ in the word, but to whether that final ‘s’ denotes the plural. Where the plural is not formed by the addition of an ‘s’ or ‘es’, the rule follows that for the singular form – as with ‘children’s’.

Examples: St James’s Palace and not St James’ Palace; Francis’s car and not Francis’ car.]

Bad form or not I must second that, seeing as how rare it is for one to find another brain able to argue and mull issues over.
