Citation Issues

I find it disconcerting that in their new cataloging scheme Family Search is disconnecting their content from the original microfilms. How can we write a proper citation without, in ES Mills' terminology, providing the "source of the source?" How do we know that a record is genuine unless we know where repositories such as Ancestry and Family Search got their images? (I know, I know: these websites are purposely setting themselves up to be publishers of record and obscuring their sources)

Here is a recent citation I created that I believe is properly complete:

Please forgive the long post, but I have several questions related to the historic letter citations covered in the fourth edition of EE.

Author's Location

Template 7 on page 123 says to handle the first reference note the following way. (I am omitting the sentence for the descriptor and using bold to call attention to my area of concern.)

Scotlands People has changed things again. The example for citing on-demand images won't work any more. The images in the image-viewer appear to now be ephemeral. They stay around in a cache for a while but then go away after some time. The citation that caught my attention is the one on page 326. It seems best to just use the cite database entry form and not attempt to use image paths.

I am starting to delve into pension records for an ancestor and his widow. I've looked at EE4 and crafted the following citations for the widow's pension:

Declaration for Widow's Pension, 5 August 1918, Elizabeth H. Culmer, widow's pension application no. 1,125,358, W.C. certificate no. 873,872, service of John W. Culmer (Sgt., Co. G, 20th Wisc. Inf., Civil War); Case Files of Approved Pension Applications, 1861-1934; Civil War and Later Pension Files; Record Group 15: Records of the Department of Veterans Affairs; National Archives and Records Administration, Washington, D.C.

Hi everyone, I'd like to cite a record from the Libraries Tasmania Names Index using Evidence Explained, but am having a bit of trouble.

This is the record: https://libraries.tas.gov.au/Record/NamesIndex/1026947 : John Johnson born 22 Sep 1878

Not even sure where to start. Would it be the "Corporate Records Online Images", even though not all records have images?

Also, would I cite Names Index: Births, or just Names Index?

This is what I have made, but it is almost certainly wrong:

Hi, 

I am having a bit of a concern in this citation below because it seems too long, and not quite easy to reproduce.

I do feel it needs the path on how to access the PDF that represent in this case the baptism register itself, and the online repository website is hard to navigate into for anyone not used to it. 

Also, the weblink doesn't help in length of the citation, we can only access to the online repository with the full URL. Doesn't work any another way. The online repository is for the Neuchâtel State Archives in Switzerland.

Hello. I'm looking for input for this souce and citation. Kind of new to the EE way of thinking and I'm still struggling a little bit. Any input appreciated. Thank you.

Source: Parish Register - Our Lady of Peace Roman Catholic Church, Baptisms, 1858-1910

My local library has microfiche copies of the Florida Divorce Index, 1927-2001. The original data is from the Florida Department of Health, Bureau of Vital Statistics, in Jacksonville. I'm attaching a sample of an index page.

I am trying to cite to a baptism certificate that was filed to a court case. Assuming the certificate is actually titled "Baptism Certificate," documents the baptism of Mary Jane Public, and was filed with the court on 2/27/2024, here is what I came up with:

case no. XXXX, John Quincy Public vs. Jane Marie Public, "Baptism Certificate [Mary Jane Public]", 27 February 2024

How does one cite a 1851 Census record form England that is mis transcribed?  I have several with different problems with the individuals names.  For example:

1861 census of England, St Mary Parish, Nottingham, ED 4, folio 70, page 23, Richard MOWBRAY; digital images, ancestry.co.uk (http://ancestry.co.uk); citing PRO RG 9/2457.  

This is what I have as a citation, however, Ancestry has the name as MOWBRAY, both on the image and on the transcript page.  So I have recorded the name as MOWBRAY (it should be MOESBY)
