To form the plural of a name ending in -ss, add -es to the end or the word; for example:one Jess, two Jessesone Bess, two BessesTo form the possessive of a plural noun ending with -s, add an apostrophe (') at the end, for example:The two Jesses' last names are Green and Brown.The two Besses' last names are Smith and Jones.
To show possession when a person's name ends in "ss," you typically add an apostrophe and an "s" after their name. For example, to show possession for a person named "Jones," you would write "Jones's car," indicating that the car belongs to Jones.
Uses can be a verb-- third person singular of "to use." But the word can also be a plural noun (the singular is "use"-- you tell them apart because they are pronounced differently; the noun "use" is pronounced with an -SS sound, like YOOSS; the verb "use" is pronounced with a -Z sound, like YOOZZ). Generally, when you want to show a possessive for a plural noun, you use the apostrophe after the s: the bosses' cars; the restaurants' managers. It would not be likely for the noun "uses" to have a possessive, however.
For names that end in "ss," simply add an apostrophe followed by "es" to make them plural. For example, "boss" becomes "bosses'" in plural form.
The plural of a letter can be written using an apostrophe, which is usually not a valid way to form a plural. The plural spelling S's could also be a possessive, but Ss would probably be unclear. The phonetic version is esses, which is the plural of ess.

Yes, the word tree's with an aposthrophe s is the possessive singular. Example sentences: University botonists studied the tree's bark for disease. (singular possessive) University botonists studied the trees' bark for disease. (plural possessive) If a noun is plural and ends in an s, then (in most cases) you only add an apostrophie but do not add an additional s. More examples: The dress's trim had ripped. The dresses' trim had ripped. (plural possessive) The professor's attire looked professional. The professors' attire looked professional. (plural possessive) Too many people make the mistake of adding an extra s to words ending in s or double s (ss). This is not correct to create a singular or plural possessive on words ending in s or ss.
"SS" in a church name stands for "Saints" in the plural like "SS Peter and Paul." It does not refer to steamship or to the Nazi Intelligence/security agency or the Waffen-SS.
For names that end in "ss," simply add an apostrophe followed by "es" to make them plural. For example, "boss" becomes "bosses'" in plural form.

Good question. The general rule is to listen to yourself saying the word as it comes naturally to you. If the ending sounds like "sez" then write s's. If the ending sounds like "ss" or "zz" then you don't. E.g. "I am going to Shirley Jones's house for lunch." When you say it, it sounds like "Jonezez" "The bass's strings are untuned" Sounds like "bases". "Put out the dogs' food" Here, there are many dogs, but you still say "dogz". "I am amazed on the bonus's effect on worker effeciency". You say "bonusez". "We cannot support the bonuses' costs." You say "bonusez" not "bonusezez" Boiling this down to guidelines, we have this: 1. If the word ends in an "s" in the singular, you can make a possessive by adding 's. 2. If the word ends in s because it is a plural (like dogs or bonuses in the examples) then you make a possessive by adding an apostrophe. There is no change in pronunciation. An exception is the name Jesus which always forms a possessive as if it were plural, and is pronounced like that. "Jesus' beard was never cut."
