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
https://www.census.gov/history/pdf/bc-600-2013.pdf
In a Wiki citation, the time the Wiki was accessed is required. Is militasry time used or is "a.m." and/or "p.m" include in the citation?
I have previously been citing any Find A Grave listings like this:
Find A Grave, Find A Grave, database with images (http://www.findagrave.com/ : accessed 11 Nov 2016), memorial #23397157, Rhoda Cole Stephens (1770-1821); citing Masonic Cemetery, Bunceton, Cooper County, Missouri, USA; gravestone photograph # 121450148 by Diana (#47342864).
May I please ask how you would cite a U.S. Social Security Applications and Claims Index 1936-2007?
I found this document listed on Ancestry.com's website as an index and would like to use this in my ICAPGen four generations paper.
I looked in your book Evidence Explained but did not find this specific document listed.
Best Regards,
Amy
I'm using a new database on Ancestry that pulls the images from Family Search (Kansas County Marriages, 1811-1911). The records are being indexed by Ancestry but the images of the document come from Family Search.
Instead of trying to figure out how to cite this, I thought I'd just go to Family Search and use that site. However, the record I'm after doesn't come up in a search of the Kansas Marriages 1811-1911 collection on Family Search.
I am attempting to source a CNN story properly via their online news source. Is the below citation correct?
1. Scott Bronstein and Drew Griffin, “A fatal wait: Veterans languish and die on a VA hospital's secret list,” 23 Apr 2014 (http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/23/health/veterans-dying-health-care-delays/: accessed 03 Jan 2017).
I'm trying to construct a citation for an image found at fold3.com. (I searched for stokesberry)
The url is: https://www.fold3.com/image/313179761/?terms=stokesberry
This is what I came up with, and wonder if it fits all the criteria for a solid citation, given that there are no image numbers and no page numbers given for the online image of the original:
It seems like it should be a simple question.
I am using a book that is available on Archive.org as a source for multiple citations. I am having trouble deciding on how to identify the author. The link to the book of interest is https://archive.org/details/catalogueofoffic00washrich.
It appears that Newpapers.com uses either a former or latter title to describe some of their newspaper collections rather than the actual title of the newspaper. For example I have an article from the 20 November 1886 edition of the Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette which Newspapers.com refers to as the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette was published between 1877 and 1901 and after a number of name changes became Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in 1927. I have used a note at the the end of my citation using EE 14.22, bottom of page 80.
