Citation Issues

loose certificates in files

I am struggling with the digital image of a California State Death Certificate on FamilySearch at this link 

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-89SJ-B1X5?i=1305&cc=2001287&cat=1131994

Normally I would cite this as follows:

Bibliography
California. Department of Public Health. Death Records. Los Angeles County Recorders Office. Norwalk. Digital images. FamilySearch. https:/familysearch.org : 2021-2023.

Years in vital records

On page EE 458, "9.33 County-level Certificates" there are four example sources, two from Alabama and one each from Florida and Montana. The example reference notes for the Florida and Montana place the year in parentheses. The example reference notes for Perry County, Alabama specify the year "1908", but the year is not placed in parentheses. The example reference notes for Bibb County, Alabama don't mention a year at all.

Citing chapters in transcribed volumes

I am citing an abstract of colonial vital records for Rhode Island.  It was published over a span of about 20 years and includes 21 volumes of the entries/details from the vital record of various towns in Rhode Island from 1639 to 1850.  The compiler is noted as James Newell Arnold and there is no editor listed.

Ancestry & NARA

Dear EE,

I am making my first draft registration card citation. I have consulted 11.1 and 
https://www.evidenceexplained.com/node/1887. In my case, I'm unable to establish that the record is on microform; and at Ancestry, I find the following alert:

  • Not Yet Digitized. This Series contains records, none of which have been digitized.

My citation draft:

England, marriage certificate

Hello,

I have reviewed previous submissions on this forum and also consulted Evidence Explained 9.48.  This is what I have come up with for a copy of a marriage certificate that was ordered from the Registrar office.  My concern is I didn't need to know if I needed to at that the marriage was solemnized at the Register office.  I have attached a copy of the marriage certificate. 

Thank you as always for your help,

Linda Rogers
