Citation Issues

Dear Editor;

After reading sec. 14.22 on "Newspaper Articles (Online Images)," I'm still a bit concerned that I've missed something. The engagement notice, for which I'm trying to craft a citation, doesn't really have a title or author. So, I've tried to use the available rules and examples as a guide. I've also utilized what I've learned to date regarding multi-layer citations. 

I wonder if the following appears to be correct?

Dear EE,

I have just about finished scanning over 600 documents from my Dad's military service. I have found many interesting items. After scanning I have cataloged all the documents. As I start to use them in my writing I am faced with figuring out how to cite them.

I'm writing reference notes for a blog post for Remembrance Day. I want to 1) reference an ancestor's specific military file on Library and Archives Canada, and 2) point visitors to the database on LAC

First Full Reference note for these:

1) "Personnel Records of the First World War," database with images, Library and Archives Canada, Military Heritage, digitized service file for George MacBean (http://central.bac-lac.gc.ca/.item/?op=pdf&app=CEF&id=B6589-S039: accessed 31 October 2019); citing RG 150, Accession 1992-93/166, Box 6589 - 39: 144519.

Hopefully you can add your thoughts on this, especially as it relates to client reports.

I cannot find in CMOS an item that references attachments, only appendices.  In a research report to a client, should they be called Appendices? Is each image a separate appendix? Or can you place all under Appendix A (for example)?

Also is it best to mention an appendix in the written portion or should one use a footnote and state in the footnote, See Appendix A?  Or is there another best practice method when using them?

Dear Editor;

When citing English parish registers, as imaged on Ancestry.com, I've tried to use the "QuickCheck Model," "IMAGE COPIES: DIGITIZED ONLINE." (Yes; I'm still fine-tuning my style for various citations and learning more about the subject as I go.)

On Ancestry, the subject collection is “Surrey, England, Church of England Burials, 1813-1987.” The image comes from [parish] "Petersham, St Peter and All Saints" > [date range] "1870-1958."

As you can see, Ancestry has all the Surrey Church of England burials grouped in a single collection.

I recently ran a confidential report from BeenVerified in the attempts to find a relative of an adoptee. After running the report it was downloaded as a PDF so that I can hand it off to the client. I am not quite sure how to formulate the citation since no one will have access to the online version and the PDF doc will be sent for the client to keep privately.

My citation looks something like this:

"Report for Stephen M. Smith," pdf, BeenVerified (https://www.beenverified.com/ : downloaded 24 October 2019), PDF privately held by Jack Woods.

Does this work?

Dear Editor;

In sec. 6.8 of the 3rd. Ed. of Evidence Explained, I read the following and had a few simple questions:

WEBSITE IMAGE NUMBERS  
Online providers of census images may assign an image number that is different from any of the page numbers above. Citing the image number is not advised. Not only do those differ from one provider to another, but they can change within a provider’s own system when the website is reorganized or more material is imaged. 

I'm looking to use some information off a page of Maine.gov regarding Vital Records, but I am struggling on how to present the agency and division in the citation. I am having difficulty figuring out the structure of how the agency is set up and how much of it I need to include in the citation.

This is what I have.

I am having a hard time locating the specific roll number on Federal Census records on the major websites (Ancestry.com / FamilySearch.org). I have citations written in 2017 which include the specific roll number, but when reviewing these websites now, I cannot find it anymore.

Example citation I wrote in 2017:

Dear Editor;

I tried citing an article on my grandfather, based on Evidence Explained, 3rd ed., sec. 14.22, p.808, “Newspaper Articles (Online Images).
