Citation Issues

Dear Editor;

I'm slowly working through the process of gathering corroborating information on the voyages of one of my ancestors. However; I am beginning to find that some of the citations are quite complex due to the way in which the reference information is presented by the source.

I've tried to leverage the examples in the Evidence Explained book, but the solution to some situations eludes me.

I am using a family letter as a source.  It is several pages and covers different topics.  In my work I'm writing about different topics, and separating those into paragraphs.  I feel uncomfortable leaving a paragraph "naked" (uncited) so I site the source at the end of each, but consequently I'm ending up with a lot of Ibids.  Can there be too many ibids?    If I just did the citation at the end of 5 paragraphs, all of which draw on the same source, would it be a problem to have the earlier paragraphs uncited, or would/should a reader recognize that the source at the end of the 5 paragraph

Dear Editor;

I frequently see examples of Ancestry citations in which the website and original information appear as a single clause. 

I recently noticed that certain digitized films on FS have different image numbers depending on how they are accessed. Here's an example from the "North Carolina Deaths, 1906–1930" collection...

1. Go to https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/1609799

2. Search for "John Smith"

3. The first search result should be "John Smith" born 1842 and died 1928. Click on the camera icon to view the image.

There are lot of images on FamilySearch, from digitized microfilm, that have neither been indexed, nor are part of a collection. An example would be found here...

This is the death certificate for Max Dennis (died September 4, 1993). NC death certificate images from 1931–1994 are available to view, but are not indexed and are not part of a collection.

I have gotten myself wrapped around the axle, once again, and can't seem to "see the forest, for the trees."

I have in my hands an original Journal publication:

Woman's Evangle
Vol. XXIII
January 1904
No. 1
Published Monthly by the Woman's Missionary Association of the United Brethren in Christ, Dayton, Ohio.

The article in consideration:

"Latest African News"

Dear Editor;

I am currently working through immigration records relating to ships. I am seeing quite a few examples in which identifying the record requires citing a mixture of pre-printed text and handwritten text. Sometimes, the spelling of the handwritten text is also incorrect. I'm not sure how best to render this. I am torn between being faithful to what is written and ensuring that the citation is usable/readable (and not cluttered with annotations).

Dear Editor,

I am attempting to use the example in EE 11.17, Passenger Manifests: Online Images, for citing the manifests present on the Statue of Liberty—Ellis Island Foundation website.

I started off as follows:

Source List Entry
Statue of Liberty—Ellis Island Foundation. Database with images. https://www.libertyellisfoundation.org: 2019.

Dear editor,

I'm creating the bibliography for a family history book. Many of my references are online images from FamilySearch. For any given census year, I might have citations for people living in different counties or states. The Quick Check Model for Digital Images on p. 237, uses a template of "Jurisdiction. Census ID, Schedule. Format. Website Title. URL. Year." The examples given in following pages of EE follow this model.

When a person is searched and identified on people search sites like PeopleFinders and BeenVerified, how is this cited?
