When putting together a list and the last names are hyphenated, do you put the very last name in alphabetical order? For example, is Jane Doe-Smith filed under Smith?

Dear Help for hyphenated names,
For hyphenated and compound names, file the names under the first part of the last name.
Examples:
Jane Doe-Smith is filed: Doe-Smith, Jane
Mary St. John is filed: St. John, Mary.
Juan Blanco de Paz is filed: Blanco de Paz, Juan
