Citation Issues

Bibliography, no books used

I have written a family history book which uses copies of, or copied segments of, Birth Death and Marriage Certificates.  These have all been captured as Figures and listed in a List of Illustrations at the front of the book.  I have tried to follow the Chicago Style for citations throughout, especially with in text referencing.  I have an an Appendix where I have evidence articles (from digitised newspaers) itemised, but in text I have put eg Refer Appendix 1 - 1.1 this article explains about why he was in the area on this date.

Level of detail in source list

Dear Editor,

I have a manuscript fully cited and a source list, partially prepared. An issue I am struggling with is that I've cited many census records for several persons, many in different locations. Sometimes I used Ancestry, sometimes FamilySearch, sometimes I found them in a library. These span from 1790 through 1850.

Citing a record from the Canadian 1940 National Registration

Hello!

I am attempting to cite my grandfather's record from the Canadian 1940 National Registration. I've tried searching this website and have spent all afternoon looking at various examples in Evidence Explained. Unfortunately, I'm not closer to determining the appopriate format for my citation.

Australia (New South Wales) BMD Certificates

Hi Editor,

It's been awhile since I posted a query. 

I am going to 'presume' that you may not be familiar with the records for the citation assistance that I am seeking, but I am hopeful that you can maybe give me some guidelines.

My query relates to vital records that are available to purchase in Australia, in this case, in the state of New South Wales, from the Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages. 

To ".com" or not to ".com," that is the question.

It is my understanding that the use of  ".com" may not be needed anymore when citing online website names such as Ancestry or FamilySearch (prior to using the web address in parentheses).  For example:

Skamania County, Washington, Marriage Records, 1950, no. 19210, Glen C. Henley—Angelina Segota, 12 June 1950; image, “Washington, Marriage Records, 1854-2013,” Ancestry (http://www.ancestry.com : accessed 11 June 2017).

Is this the new and correct use? Ancestry or Ancestry.com?

Funeral Programs and Cards

Dear Editor;

I have received an email from the Librarian/Archivist of a small local history museum. The email contains several first generation images of original Funeral Programs and Cards that are part of the archives of the local history museum. The Librarian/Archivist performed the digitization himself. To create the references, would one use the QuickCheck Model for "PRIVATE HOLDINGS: ARTIFACT" (p. 105) and show the Librarian/Archivist as the compiler? How would I account for seeing the image and not the original, or is that not important?
