Citation Issues

In Evidence Explained! I see how to Cite a newspaper article in the Print form and the Online form. I have run across an issue where the Newspaper in question is on Microfilm. I understand that there are Microfilm templates and that is an option, but am wondering which would be the best to use. I like the Newspaper Name format, for either the Printed or the Online form of article.

Thank you,

I hold such things as:  birth, marriage, death certificates;  military personnel documents;  and divorce filings.  I consider these as original sources and as "unrecorded family copies," even though in most cases there is a filed copy and I know where it is filed and could probably get access (a photocopy).    I have 3 questions:  1) am I correct to consider such items as "legal documents unrecorded family copies"? 2) when I cite them, should I also cite where they are filed officially, if known?

I am looking at some photographs of photographs of loose bible pages. The original photographs were donated to the John Fox, Jr. Genealogical Library, in Pairs Kentucky and can be found in the Jackson Family File.

Looking at the citations for a family file and loose bible records. I have come up with the following for the beginning of the citation my plan is to follow this with a description of the pages.

I am trying to come up with a citation for some loose probate records (79 pages) in Reunion 9 (for Mac). For the citation, the best that I can come up with is;

Illinois. Kankakee County, Probate Files. County Clerk's Office, Kankakee.

Vital record certificate has State of Illinos, Illinois Dept of Health, Division of Vital Records at the top of the certificate, but the certificate is stamped County Clerk's Record and is housed at a local county clerk's office where the event took place (death, birth) Is this considered a State Record or a Local Record for citation purposes? I am referring to citation information on pages 466-467.

I have a photocopy of a birth certificate from the Vital Records section of the Municipal Archives. The photocopy is of the original certificate of birth with certificate number, clearly copied from a book/register, but with no identifying information. According to the Archives website, records for Brooklyn births cover the years 1866-1909. Where do I indicate that the certificate is a photocopy and not a digital image or original? Also, since there is no book/volume/page information, does the exact date of birth suffice? The following is my attempt at citation.

I'm trying to cite two loose records, the first a "master's obligation" and the second the "apprentice's indenture." These were moved from the Gilmer County, Georgia, Probate Court to the state archives in Morrow some years back. At the archives, both of these papers are in the same file folder in a box with many other files.

Ancesty.com's database and images for the 1871, 1881, 1891, 1901 and 1911 census title matches the Library and Archives of Canada's (LAC) titles for these census years. The special census' of 1906 and 1916 the Ancestry.com and LAC database titles don't match. Ancestry titles them 1906 or 1916 Canada Census of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. While LAC titles them Census of the Northwest Provinces, 1906 and Census of the Prairie Provinces, 1916. As seen here: http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/census/index-e.html

Hi,

I have a letter my grandmother wrote to me in 1980.  Both my name and location have changed, and I will likely move again, being married to a pastor.

Per EE 3.35, here is my stab at an appropriate citation:

     1.  Laura Ellis Doody (Homewood, Illinois) to "Dear Paula" [Doody], letter, 27 June 1980, page 2; privately held by Paula Doody Ryburn, Richmond, Texas.
