Based on the NIV, which is what is closer at the moment, I am not sure 
about your division into quotes. Rather than quotes the portions John 
the Baptist, Elijah, etc. are reports of speech and not quotations. The 
overall content of the verse following "They said" is a quotation.

Thus,

<verse osisID="Matt.16.14>
They said, <q>Some say, <q
sID="Matt.16.14.q.1"/><transChange>He is</transChange> <name 
type="human">John the
Baptist</name>, but others, <name
type="human">Elijah</name>, and others, <name
type="human">Jeremiah</name> or one of the prophets.</q></verse>

Quote always allows <transChange> to be a child element.

Does that help or have I missed the mark?

Hope you are having a great day!

Patrick
