Normally when you cite an email you put [(E-ADRESS FOR PRIVATE USE),] but if the email is from an official of some sort (in this case the clerk of the circuit court) can you go ahead and put the actual email address? It seems a bit odd to privatize the email address of a govenment official.
Dear Editor,
With some changes that have been made on Ancestry.com and their Ancestry Member Trees, I have stepped back a bit to see IF I have been handling citations appropriately. My genealogy software may have driven me in the direction that I have taken.
Hi,
In most cases, for me anyway, I send for records by email, order online, or snail mail simply because I live at an inconvenient distance from the archives holding the records I need.
Here is a classic example that occurred recently. I sent to NARA for a copy of a widow's pension file, War of 1812. In the comments section of the online order form, I further requested that they include the location in their archives where the file is found so I can properly cite the record. But, of course they didn't remit the citation information.
First Reference Note -
In EE, there are some sources that use the acronym NARA (i.e. federal census records) and some that use National Archives (i.e. cash entry files). Does it matter?
All people are familiar with the assignment, essay writing task especially students. Many of the students are write the assignment with their own words and ideas but others buying assignment, essay from the essay writing service. Completely depending on the essay writing resources are not good for the student’s academic work. They cannot improve their knowledge skills and the writing skills. Students can get different information through the assignment writing work. If the students are using the writing services properly then they can easily and successfully complete their academic work.
I'm trying to cite several old birth announcements that don't actually name the child, just the parents. An example would be this announcement for my grandfather and his twin sister's birth.
Born to Mr. and Mrs. Albert Garrison, June 2, twins, a boy and girl. Both mother and children are doing nicely.

Hello, thanks for the guidance in crafting citations for my research. Here's a situation that I haven't seen explicitly addressed in the book or quicksheet:
Hello Editor,
I was just entering a record into my genealogy software (Legacy) but wanted to run my citation by you, for opinion and further guidence if needed.
I recently commissioned some research from a company I have used in the past, to locate and copy records from microfilm held at the Public Records Office of Northern Ireland, for the Donacavey Church of Ireland (Fintona Parish, County Tyrone).
This is my current citation for one of the records provided.
In comparing/contrasting the QuickCheck Models for "Microfilm:Population Schedules" 1790-1840 vs. 1850-1870 vs. 1880-1940 (3rd edition pages 245, 246, and 248), I'm curious to learn why the enumeration district is only included for 1880-1940.
Thank you.
A distant cousin of mine just sent me a copy of a document that I have never seen before.
It is an “Application for Search of Census Records.” My cousin’s dad didn’t have a birth certificate so he had to fill this form out to get social security benefits. I guess this was in lieu of obtaining a delayed birth certificate. This form was completed in 1952.
I found this at NARA
