Citation Issues

Dear Editor;

In a biography that I am writing there is a paragraph where I need to repeat the identical citation at the end of each sentence. Is this required or can I just cite it once, in the long form, after the first sentence?

Hello,

I am trying to figure out how I can properly cite Ancestry member shared photos (either actual photographs or images, or images of documents).

I am not quite certain how I should go about it to accurately create a citation that works.

I was thinking something like this:

Surname, name (or username if no name), "Photograph of individuals' name". Year if/when available; Ancestry Public Member Photos & Scanned Documents. Date shared. URL

Does anyone have suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Catherine

Query from RobynR:

I had previously looked at some abstracted information in late 2017, found in the online catalogue at the East Riding Archives website. But I am only now, actually trying to do a citation for the same. I searched the forum and this particular thread seemed to represent a similar issue and has helped me understand certain things.

I have crafted the following for my full reference note, but somehow I still feel a little confused if the layout is actually correct.

The following image contains information about the death of Myrtle Bemis Perry:

"Minnesota, County Deaths, 1850-2001," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QPZT-CLR3 : 25 October 2019), Myrtle Bemis Perry, Rochester Township, Olmsted, Minnesota, United States; citing Death, multiple county courthouses, Minnesota.

The access date given is 25 October 2019, but I viewed the record on 25 February 2020.

Should I change this date to the date I viewed it?

Does anybody out there know how to properly cite sources from Arkivdigital, Riksarkivet, and familysearch when you are looking at digital images of Swedish Church records or at images of military records online?  I cannot find any book or website that explains the proper way to do it.

The book is Trinity Lutheran Church Records, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, vol. 3, 1782-1796, translated and edited by Debra D. Smith and Frederick S. Weiser.  Do I begin with Debra D. Smith and Frederick S. Weiser, translators and editors since there is no author noted?

Typically I would handle citing an Ancestry message much like an email or instant message. However, Ancestry recently made some updates to their messaging system and there is no longer a way to create or view subject lines. I am thinking that in order to cite it correctly I would need to make one up. If that's the case, am I correct in thinking that the subject line should now be placed in brackets?

ie:

How does one cite a newspaper from Findmypast, when the paper itself is the "Jackson's Oxford Journal" but Findmypast uses "Oxford Journal" as their terminology for this publication.

If one references their citation to "Jackson's Oxford Journal" with the usual caveats for newspapers published online by another provider, i.e. (EE 14.22 Newspaper Articles (Online Images) - I am fairly sure that others would not find that newspaper name at the website being cited.

Have attached 2 images for thoughts.

Am interested in others views.

How would one cite a book, that is not really a book, but is the full text of a book - that has been digitised and made available online. I am revisiting and revising some of my earlier citations.

I am referring to content on the British History Online (BHO) website, specifically for: https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/oxon/vol17/175-208

They do offer this for citation (Chicago):
