Citation Issues

I have a citation for an image from Ancestry taken from a series of books.  Here's my attempt at a citation:

“Connecticut Town Birth Records, pre-1870 (Barbour Collection),” database and images, Ancestry (http://www.ancestry.com : viewed 11 July 2016); imaging Lorraine Cook White, editor, The Barbour Collection of Connecticut Town Vital Records, 55 vols. (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1994-2002), [volume not given] : 216, entry for Celia Hills [Hill], b. 25 January 1816, Burlington.

I've been working on a citation to a certified photocopy of a delayed birth certificate which I hold in my files.  Using the QuickCheck Model on EE page 430 and multiple examples of layered citations I came up with the following:

Alabama, State Board of Health, Delayed Certificate of Birth (CERT. DATE), ID OF PERSON, Bureau of Vital Statistics,  Montgomery; certified copy, Alabama State Registrar of Vital Statistics; privately held by MY NAME [address for private use] CITY, Alabama, 2016

Dear EE,

My question(s) are really not new. However, I need some clarification, for myself. I am on the final (hopefully) edit of a descedancy lineage. Sigh! I began from the beginning this morning and lo and behold I am sooo confused, again, about citations with layers, especially digital images within databases at Ancestry and source of source issues. I wrote these citations months ago. Now I am second guessing what I have done.

So just a quick question about the QuickCheck on page 661.   The source list entry uses the new format of "Image copy" and the first full ref note uses the new format "digital images", but all of the other information is the same.

Why would you cite them as different formats? Or was that more just saying that you could use either?

I'm trying to write my first ever biographical sketch of an ancestor, and now that I've got all of his genealogical story written out with neattly footnoted citations to records and databases, which I'm most familiar with, I'm going to embellish his sketch with some interesting historical facts.  I've been reading through EE edition 2, Sections 2.33 - 2.54.  This may seem elementary, but I've never done this before and I'm a bit lost.

Last year the National Library of Ireland put all of its Catholic parish records online at http://registers.nli.ie/   I'm not sure how to cite the records I am finding.  Of course I started with my trusty copy of EE and the quick check model for Image Copies: Digitized Online,  but I'm still fumbling.  It seems like the NLI should be the lead element and not the church, since I'm not looking at a single parish's website.  Is this correct?  Here is what I came up with for the baptismal record for Jeremiah Broderick, baptized 3 May 1870.

Dear EE,

I searched through the forums for my topic and saw none. So, here it goes. I think I read somewhere that within a genealogy narrative it is not necessary to repeat a citiation for a fact that has already been cited. For example, a citation for a marriage of a daughter in one section of a genealogy being then cited again in the following section about a different daughter who witnessed that marriage. Teresa Mills

I've put together an initial draft citation for the 1885 Iowa state census:

Hello,

I am hopeful for assistance in writing a citation for a 'copy' of an 'original copy' of a marriage register from New Zealand.

The document was purchased through the New Zealand BDM website, which is referenced with the registration number of 1870/6021, produced through a search of their historical marriages. The actual document is a handwritten transcribed copy of the original marriage register, presumed to be issued in the same year (1870) which was then sent off to the relevant office of the Department of Internal Affairs for official Govt. record keeping.

I borrowed some microfilms from Library of Virginia through InterLibrary Loan to my local library. I found a marriage bond for Reins-Ingram, dated 27 May 1820 in the second item on the film with a title card that said, "Marriage Bonds 1817 – 1820". Library of Virginia holds this microfilm in a collection it calls "Norfolk County Microfilms" under a subheading called "Marriage Records and Vital Statistics". 

The film is numbered "Reel 75" on the website but the box also states "Film #01000".
