Citation Issues

Hereinafter unsure

I have a need to use hereinafter cited as in order to define much-shortened forms of certain source references. Most of the examples I have seen have been for the citation of legal cases, where the legal mode of reference is quite different from our genealogical style. However, in my case, it's to shorten the overall volume of citations, which is already overbearing. An elided form of the wording, as is normal for short-form citations, wouldn't reduce the volume to the level that I want.

Citing Historical Aerial Map from a city website

I am not sure if this is correct. I am using aerial maps from 1958 that are on a city website. I have cited the collection (GIS & Data Services, Aerial Imagery & Ground Control Survey) as a chapter and the City of Lubbock as the title.

“GIS & Data Services, Aerial Imagery & Ground Control Survey,” City of Lubbock (http://www.ci.lubbock.tx.us/city-of-lubbock-home : accessed 31 May 2016), online images, “Historical Aerial Photography, 1958,” image 1958_185.TIF.

Am I missing anything?

Use of "household" in census citations

I'm a little confused when to include the word "household" in census citations.

EE3 6.31 has this First Reference Note:

1910 U.S. census, New York County, New York, population schedule, Bronx Assembly District 33, precinct 19, p. 269 (stamped), enumeration district (ED) 38, sheet 6-A, dwelling 37, family 124, Jacob Sounheimer; NARA microfilm publication T624, roll 999.

When is it appropriate (or useful) to include "household"?  For example:

Transcript across several pages in a report - Where do I source it?

I'm working on a research report where the transcription of a document is three pages long.  

Do I cite the source on every page or just at the end of the transcript?  Do I use a full citation on every page or a subsequent/shorter source citation after the first one (if I should on every page)?  Do I again cite the source in the document analysis that follows the transcript?

A Citation Assistant

A rather unusual question for this forum. I'm sure I've asked this before, but I cannot remember where.

I see a problem with EE being used as a "set of citation templates", rather than as a guide to evidence analysis and citation creation, and when combined with the software industry's pursuit of formulaic templates -- to the exclusion of layers, analytical notes, and "edge cases" -- then methodology is being lost at the expense of simplicity.

Hello Ms. Mills,

I apologize for posting this here but i didn't know how else to contact you.  On your alternate website Historic Pathways.com where you graciously let students of genealogical methods view some of your documents,  one of your links is broken.

How to Cite Ancestry Immigration Record

I'm hoping for some help - this may be quite simple, but I'm a little bamboozled!How do I cite an immigration record found on Ancestry for Jane Blythe?The collection on Ancestry is "Victoria, Australia, Assisted and Unassisted Passenger Lists, 1839–1923" which is a collation of information held at Public Record Office Victoria.Any help would be greatly appreciated... I've attached an image of the record or you can see it here:http://interactive.ancestry.com.au/1635/30796_125513__090-0-00470?pid=3772939&backurl=http%3a%2f%2fsearch.Ances

Citing an image in a book

Dear Editor,

I plan to use an image from a book. Unless I missed it, I didn't see any example for this in EE; but, here is a stab at it:

Format:

Artist Name, "Title of Art" [description], year, Book Title, Author, (publisher info), p. 99; Archive (web address).

All the above information is not always available, so for example (some of this is fictional for illustration):

Using of "citing"

I've had an extraordinary difficulty putting together a citation for what seemed to be a fairly straighforward source.

The 1889 census for Washington Territory is available through Ancestry or the Washington State Digital Archives.  The providers provide images from two different filmings of the original records. For a variety of reasons I chose to cite the database (not the images).

The providers give these source citations:
