Perhaps someone could give me their opinion on how to handle this particular piece of evidence [document attached]?
I am trying to describe and use as a reference, this document, specifically for the date of birth of Delphine Grant. Here is what I have thus far:
Does anyone know if templates for EndNote X8 or some earlier version have been developed for various kinds of sources covered in Evidence Explained?
Hello,
How do you cite a ML found in a CW pension packett? Do you cite the state from which is came or do you do a multi-layered citation, citing the pension and the ML record?
Thank you, for your guidance.
I've gotten very confused attempting to create a citation to a database entry on Ancestry.
Citing only the database entry was straightforward:
"New Orleans, Louisiana, Birth Records Index, 1790-1915," database, Ancestry (https://www.ancestry.com : accessed 25 Aug. 2017), entry for Francesco Alberto Frayle, 9 June 1889, New Orleans.
The trouble began when I tried to add a layer for the source of the source.
Ancestry provides this information for the entry:

I recently purchased a marriage record from Cook County Genealogy Records (http://www.cookcountygenealogy.com). I couldn't locate a citation method for it in EE, so I came up with this one:
Cook County, Illinois, Marriage License no. 2103807, Joseph Morien to Mabel White (1949); digital image purchased online, Cook County Genealogy Records (http://www.cookcountygenealogy.com : accessed 21 August 2017).
I'm trying to decide how to record the ARTICLE TITLE in a citation for a news brief found in a newspaper. Often briefs are listed under a heading such as "Local News", "Deaths", "About Town" or "Circuit Court". What follows are usually one paragraph for each reported event.
Should the ARTICLE TITLE be the heading of the column, or the beginning words of the paragraph?
For instance, a weekly column is entitled "LOCAL NEWS, Happenings of Interest in and about Garnett", then many paragraphs down is the paragraph/sentence:
Hello all. I'm having a bit of an issue in deciding how to cite Connecticut vital records and thought I'd turn here for some advice. Connecticut is an odd state, in that it's vital record certificates are created by the state, but originals (or at least duplicates) can be acquired from both the state and the town of occurance. That means one can order the same certificates from both the town clerk and the Department of Health. Does that make it a local level certificate or a state level certificate?
I have been trying to figure out how to cite a French Civil Records (my description) website. The Genealogical Society of Utah microfilmed the records and is/was available to rent. They filmed the registers located in what is now the Basses-Atlantiques region; at the time (1615-1909) it was the Basses-Pyrénées region.
So I am looking at microfilm of a register/book on a website that used Church then Civil records. I'm stuck at which source do I use? I know this is not how the source is, it's my notes for now of where I got the information.
Last query hopefully, I have read up and now worked out how to do my citations, along with your advice.
At the beginning of the book I have a list of Figures which cover the pictures sourced from documents.
EG Figure 1: Picture of what life was like at that time
Is it OK to put the citation for this picture here under Figure 1 in the list or do I still have to put a reference number then the citation at the bottom of that page.
Likewise for Appendix. I have: Refer to Appendix item .... which gives the reason why this happened
