Citation Issues

I recently ran a confidential report from BeenVerified in the attempts to find a relative of an adoptee. After running the report it was downloaded as a PDF so that I can hand it off to the client. I am not quite sure how to formulate the citation since no one will have access to the online version and the PDF doc will be sent for the client to keep privately.

My citation looks something like this:

"Report for Stephen M. Smith," pdf, BeenVerified (https://www.beenverified.com/ : downloaded 24 October 2019), PDF privately held by Jack Woods.

Does this work?

Dear Editor;

In sec. 6.8 of the 3rd. Ed. of Evidence Explained, I read the following and had a few simple questions:

WEBSITE IMAGE NUMBERS  
Online providers of census images may assign an image number that is different from any of the page numbers above. Citing the image number is not advised. Not only do those differ from one provider to another, but they can change within a provider’s own system when the website is reorganized or more material is imaged. 

I'm looking to use some information off a page of Maine.gov regarding Vital Records, but I am struggling on how to present the agency and division in the citation. I am having difficulty figuring out the structure of how the agency is set up and how much of it I need to include in the citation.

This is what I have.

I am having a hard time locating the specific roll number on Federal Census records on the major websites (Ancestry.com / FamilySearch.org). I have citations written in 2017 which include the specific roll number, but when reviewing these websites now, I cannot find it anymore.

Example citation I wrote in 2017:

Dear Editor;

I tried citing an article on my grandfather, based on Evidence Explained, 3rd ed., sec. 14.22, p.808, “Newspaper Articles (Online Images).

Dear Editor;

I reviewed section 11.60 of the 3rd. ed. of Evidence Explained, then tried to cast an English Probate calendar entry in a similar format (see below). Unfortunately; the ordering of the clauses in the first reference note example did not flow logically for me. I was trying to achieve 3 distinct levels; record data (what we see), source and source-of-the-source. So, I re-order things a bit. Call it exercising "artistic licence," if you will.

Could you give me your opinion as to whether this is a reasonable citation for the record?

Dear Editor;

I need to create a source list entry and reference notes for the baptisms of seven children of Arthur and Ellen Colborne. All seven entries occur on a single page (What a find!) but in different years. However; the Parish Register does have a volume number, numbered pages and entry numbers. So; the year is not actually required to uniquely identify the individuals involved.

We have the original signed document granting citizenship dated 1875. The document shows State of New York, City and County of Albany at the top but states the Justice's Court of the City of Albany. Due to the age, there isn't a record number associated with it.

Would this fall under the citation format under 8.31 even though there is no document number or record book reference?

Thanks.

Carrie

After reviewing the discussion on the GRO here https://www.evidenceexplained.com/index.php/node/1564

I have taken a slightly different approach. I am now wondering if I need to amend my approach. I have a significant number of these records. For the vast majority, I went to the PRO’s in the actual registration district.

This question is a book of a different cover. It probably would have been easier to ask over at Facebook but I am not a member there so I tried to use the forum board that best fit.

This particular QuickSheet (in the subject) was originally printed in 2010 (First Edition) and a Second Edition was printed in 2017 per author's Amazon page and WorldCat.
