Dear Editor;
Dear Editor;
I need to cite an Indian Treaty in a discussion regarding when land records become available. I'm in the middle of Alabama in 1814 and need to cite Andrew Jackson's huge land grab after the Creek war. Really interesting is that NARA has the actual treaty images online.
Thanks as always for any insight you may be able to offer.
I'm struggling to cite this slide associated with a Toledo, Ohio cemetery record card catalog. This page on FamilySearch contains the microfilm collection that includes the microfilm with the slide I linked.
I've been doing a lot better with finding what I need for a citation in my copy of EE, Third Ed. However, this one is beating me up for some reason. This is a collection at the Georgia Archives in Morrow, GA which I found on Ancestry.
Here's what I have so far:
SOURCE LIST ENTRY
"Georgia, U.S., Civil War Correspondence, 1861-1865." Database with images. Ancestry. http://www.ancestry.com : 2022.
FIRST REFERENCE NOTE
Issues citing the Norwegian Census
I have found the entry for Ole Arnesen in the 1865 census of Norway. I believe I have correctly adapted the basic format for a census, but wonder how to handle the location designator within the imaged Norwegian census book. That number, while sequential and unique, seems to be neither a true folio number nor a true page number. It appears to have been added to maintain order during digitizing. Would the following be a reasonable method of handling this?
I recently received a collection of some random family artifacts. Most of what I have are various trinkets owned by deceased family members such as a wallet, figurines, a souvenir spoon, military medals, etc. None of them were created by the person who originally owned them.
I recently attended the funeral service of a great-uncle. There were a number of speakers at the funeral who shared different memories. At the conclusion of the service, I made my own notes regarding the stories that were shared about my great-uncle. I am now unsure how to go about citing this information. I thought perhaps it could be considered personal knowledge, but I am not entirely sure of this. The notes consist of a number of eulogies from friends and family of the deceased (unfortunately, I do not have the names of all who contributed their story).
Hello,
I’m learning to cite and am still very much a beginner and not feeling confident with creating a citation for a baptism transcription found on CD-ROM.
The CD-ROM contains transcriptions of baptisms, marriages, and burials for Abingdon and was purchased from the Oxfordshire Family History Society. https://www.ofhs.uk/shop/ABINGDON-Reg-Dist-01-p190196587
I have also attached page 201 from Volume 6 which contains the baptism transcription for Thomas Eackling.
Hello,
RootsMagic didn't have a ready-made source template for a state-level census (other than microfilm or FHL). I accessed mine through Ancestry.com. So I created a new source template in the likeness of their Federal census one. Below is what my citation looks like. Here are my two questions:
Hello,
Picked up a copy of EE and RootsMagic (stepping up my game from just being on Ancestry.com). I have a few, probably superfluous, questions. Here's a copy of one of my census citations. Would you mind checking it out? I added the bold for emphasis.
