Citation Issues

Before the NGS Family History Conference, I visited the Indiana State Archives for the first time. I dutifully photographed the label on the box, the label on the folder, and the item within. After re-reading Chapter 4 of EE4, I thought I knew what elements go in each layer. But the label and its online index for the item have me stymied. There may be more items on the label that I don't need, or perhaps I'm not understanding the items.

Hello,

I am working with many birth records found in various German Kirchenbücher.  Often, the records I find are listed by only the child's first and middle (baptismal and given) names. The surname must be derived from the  information given about the parents. 

For example, I am working on an individual known to me as Johann Paul Dieterle.  Since his birth record lists him only as Johann Paul (and provides the surname of his father later in the record), would it be appropriate for me to "add" his surname using square brackets?

I ordered copies of documents in a Bounty Land Warrant Application file from the NARA (Form 85C). The documents came with a packing slip labeled Military Bounty-Land Warrant Application File. The first document (cover slip) was stamped with handwritten information about the records included completed with the following information: THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES - BOUNTY LAND FILES - ACT OF 55-80-29651 - VETERAN Joseph Williams 1812 - GRADE Private - SERVICE Capt Minton Ga Mil - CAN NO. 191 - BUNDLE NO. 111.

My attempt at citing these records is (following 11.28 of EE (third ed)) is:

I want cite this source, but I'm debating whether it is a book or a journal. Here is the citation I have crafted in case it is a book:

Logan Esarey, editor, Indiana University Bulletin: Register of Graduates 1830-1910; PDF download, Google Books (https://books.google.com/).

Here's the link to the item in Google Books: https://www.google.com/books/edition/Register_of_the_Graduates_of_Indiana_Uni/3C7tAAAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1

What gives me pause and makes me think it is a journal is the presence of "Vol. IX, No. 5" on the title page.

I am looking for direction of how to handle a citation for negative search results in the FamilySearch.org Full Text Search. results in the FamilySearch.org when A page by page search of a will book was performed as well as the Full Text Search. Should the citation include a comment about the use of the Full Text Search? If FamilySearch adds records to the Full Text Search at a later date, should the accessed date or a search date  be included in the citation? 

When citing the title of an article that is in sentence case, should the citation reference it in sentence case or use title case?

Hello, 

I apologize because I see from searching the forums this topic has been addressed before, but the answer was still slightly unclear to me. In EE 4th ed., I see many examples with the "[ADDRESS FOR PRIVATE USE]" notation in small caps.

John Esslinger's 1907 government issued identification papers for immigration to the United States are in my possession. Written in Hungarian, names use last name - first name format. Papers were issued by the clerk "Hübner Simon" [Simon Hübner] in Csakova on 15 Mar 1907. Information documented on the paper are:

I found a very interesting document via a Google search. It is a detailed description of the contents of a collection held by the University of Tasmania. The Document is entitled "Leake Family Papers" and is in two parts which can be found at https://eprints.utas.edu.au/10860/4/Leake.pdf and https://eprints.utas.edu.au/10860/3/Leake.pdf.
