Record Usage and Interpretation

So I'm trying to be much more careful about the words I'm using to express confidence in my reports. While I fully agree with the listing from 1.6, how do I inform the readers that I'm using that hierarchy? Appendix, footnote, ... I don't see other reports listing that, but not many readers will be able to tease out the hierarchy without a cheat sheet. I'm leaning towards an appendix.

I am going through some old citations in my genealogy software to correct them and I came across about 50 citations from Ancestry's  England, Select Births and Christenings, 1538-1975 database. Ancestry is citing the FamilySearch database under the same name. However, when I go to Familysearch very few of the names can actually be found. I ran a general search with the same names, and the baptismal records aren't found in any other database that I could find.

"Source Citation" or "Original Data" when both appear equivalent?

My software is Family Tree Maker. I find myself repeatedly using Business and Institutional Records/Corporate Records/Online Database for sources on Ancestry. The current record in question is: Ohio, Soldier Grave Registrations, 1804-1958. Am I doing this correctly?

I just thought that I would post this (some of my research of my fathers DNA Matches and further investigation/research) on that:

QUANDRY:

Issue One:

I thought citing this source would be easy, that is until I started to work on it; I seem to be going around in circles!

I have the image of the article, but I do not have the digital source where it was found. I have the name of the newspaper from which the image was taken,  when the article was published, and where it was located in the newspaper. It seems to me that I should include information re the newspaper containing the article, name of data base of the online provider (which I do not know), and the person that sent the e-mail to me. But in which order? 

 Dear Editor;

I have a copy of the following 3 documents:

2003-07-22 Death - Corr. from  C. Patterson to Jessie Gauthier (letter) - Murison, Charles
1922-11-05 Death - Medical Certificate of Cause of Death - MURISON, Charles
1922-11-05 Death - Registration of Death - MURISON, Charles

The correspondence of 2003-07-22 was the cover letter for certified copies of the two death-related documents that were requested by my mother (deceased) with my assistance. The entire package was passed to me upon her death.

I would appreciate your thoughts on why this draft registration card would have a stamp for the Newburgh, New York draft board but have the signature of the registrar for the draft board in Cass, North Dakota.

Dear Editor;

I try to ensure that I have unbroken census coverage for a family. That is; I try to obtain records for each possible census year, showing each parent from marriage to death and each child from birth to marriage. One of my reasons is to ensure that I identify all the children. Another is that the names, ages and locations help me ensure I have the correct family and identify approx. BMD dates (I also try look at wills and testaments to corroborate my findings.) 

While researching a noble line, I am finding references to several medieval manuscripts, such as chronicles of noble houses. Many of these chronicles have been published by reputable publishing houses or archives (annotated transcriptions, usually).
