Citation Issues

I would welcome suggestions for citing material from https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu.89102885654&view=1up&seq=1&skin=2021. It appears to be a bound compilation of the minutes of Indiana Yearly Meeting from 1864 to 1870. There does not appear to be any title page for the compilation itself. Page 7 of the file includes what looks like a title page, but it's really only a reference to an 1850 act by the Indiana state legislature and has nothing to do with the yearly meeting minutes per se.

I obtained a death record from Agatha, the State Archives of Belgium's (incredible) online search environment (https://agatha.arch.be/). I was able to select English as the database's language, which is also my native language. 

I have a friend in the Netherlands who transcribed the death record for me, and she provided an English translation of the original death record. 

I am trying to cite a page from a roster of the residents of the old Confederate Home in Texas. Because it appears to be a manuscript, I have put the title in quotes instead of italics.

“Roster of (Registration Book) with separate index” (Austin: Texas State Library, 1990), 90; FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CS73-9W55-R : accessed 8 September 2024), Image Group Number 7857290 > image 57 of 164, entry for L.A. Little.

I’m using the print edition of Evidence Explained 4th edition and noticed a formatting difference for newspaper titles:

According to Template 4, Newspaper Article (page 120): “If part of the location is included in the title, we may add the missing locator into the title, using square editorial brackets, without italics for the added word.” (emphasis added)

I need to cite a translation from German to English.  The translation was done by a translation expert through the Germanology Unlocked website.  How do I cite this translation?  Thank you in advance!

I'm working on 1850 U.S. census citations.  Below is a link for the example I am using, and my citation.

https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/10032125:8054

Van Buren County, Arkansas, population schedule, Craig Township, sheet 318B (stamped), dwelling 303, family 303, James Stroud household; imaged, Ancestry (https://www.ancestry.com/search/collections/8054 : accessed 19 Aug 2024).

A Fold3 search revealed my ancestor applied for a War of 1812 Bounty Land Warrant (BLW).  I electronically requested, and received (via a temporary online link), the BLW Application file from NARA.  File documents stated the application was “suspended” and appealed. No appeal results or BLW approval was found in the file.

I am trying to accurately cite the birth certificate for my great-great-grandfather, who was born in 1905. He obtained a delayed birth certificate in 1940. I should first explain that Florida has two types of birth certificates - the computer-generated short form, and the photocopy-generated long form. I have both. Also, this particular delayed birth certificate was not issued through the county or by a court - it was issued administratively by the state vital statistics office pursuant to the law in effect at the time.

Good day Editor and community,

Hello EE,

I hope you can help me with some questions regarding some differences between your book's 3rd and 4th editions.

1. The first question is regarding newspaper titles when the city is missing from the title. The third edition uses parentheses, whereas the fourth edition uses brackets. Why the change?

2. I’m trying to understand the nature of the citation for the Civil War Soldiers & Sailors System in EE 12.27 Online Databases or Indexes and the changes from the 3rd to 4th edition. Perhaps my understanding of the site is different from yours.
