Hello EE,
I was wondering if you could help me out on this one.
I am trying to cite the "Search Will Calendars" database with images (of transcripts) from the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI). As a background, so you will not have to look it up:
I've been spending part of this Labor Day weekend doing a little genealogy and Ancestry had some "new to me" images online that has the marriage record of my 3x great-grandparents! Yay!
I'm struggling with how to cite a record I purchased and downloaded from the Cambridge Family History Society website. They have a service known as "Ancestor Finder" which allows one to enter Surname, Parish/Placename, and/or Record Set to "look up transcriptions from all the Cambridgeshire Parish Records, a miscellany of Non-conformist Lists and the 1841, 1851, 1861 and 1871 census records." Once the search has been completed, one can purchase the results and download as PDF. My search turned up the following record:
Perhaps someone could give me their opinion on how to handle this particular piece of evidence [document attached]?
I am trying to describe and use as a reference, this document, specifically for the date of birth of Delphine Grant. Here is what I have thus far:
Does anyone know if templates for EndNote X8 or some earlier version have been developed for various kinds of sources covered in Evidence Explained?
Hello,

Thank you, for your guidance.
I've gotten very confused attempting to create a citation to a database entry on Ancestry.
Citing only the database entry was straightforward:
"New Orleans, Louisiana, Birth Records Index, 1790-1915," database, Ancestry (https://www.ancestry.com : accessed 25 Aug. 2017), entry for Francesco Alberto Frayle, 9 June 1889, New Orleans.
The trouble began when I tried to add a layer for the source of the source.
Ancestry provides this information for the entry:

I recently purchased a marriage record from Cook County Genealogy Records (http://www.cookcountygenealogy.com). I couldn't locate a citation method for it in EE, so I came up with this one:
Cook County, Illinois, Marriage License no. 2103807, Joseph Morien to Mabel White (1949); digital image purchased online, Cook County Genealogy Records (http://www.cookcountygenealogy.com : accessed 21 August 2017).
I'm trying to decide how to record the ARTICLE TITLE in a citation for a news brief found in a newspaper. Often briefs are listed under a heading such as "Local News", "Deaths", "About Town" or "Circuit Court". What follows are usually one paragraph for each reported event.
Should the ARTICLE TITLE be the heading of the column, or the beginning words of the paragraph?
For instance, a weekly column is entitled "LOCAL NEWS, Happenings of Interest in and about Garnett", then many paragraphs down is the paragraph/sentence:
