Citation Issues

Last year the National Library of Ireland put all of its Catholic parish records online at http://registers.nli.ie/   I'm not sure how to cite the records I am finding.  Of course I started with my trusty copy of EE and the quick check model for Image Copies: Digitized Online,  but I'm still fumbling.  It seems like the NLI should be the lead element and not the church, since I'm not looking at a single parish's website.  Is this correct?  Here is what I came up with for the baptismal record for Jeremiah Broderick, baptized 3 May 1870.

Dear EE,

I searched through the forums for my topic and saw none. So, here it goes. I think I read somewhere that within a genealogy narrative it is not necessary to repeat a citiation for a fact that has already been cited. For example, a citation for a marriage of a daughter in one section of a genealogy being then cited again in the following section about a different daughter who witnessed that marriage.

I've put together an initial draft citation for the 1885 Iowa state census:

Hello,

I am hopeful for assistance in writing a citation for a 'copy' of an 'original copy' of a marriage register from New Zealand.

The document was purchased through the New Zealand BDM website, which is referenced with the registration number of 1870/6021, produced through a search of their historical marriages. The actual document is a handwritten transcribed copy of the original marriage register, presumed to be issued in the same year (1870) which was then sent off to the relevant office of the Department of Internal Affairs for official Govt. record keeping.

I borrowed some microfilms from Library of Virginia through InterLibrary Loan to my local library. I found a marriage bond for Reins-Ingram, dated 27 May 1820 in the second item on the film with a title card that said, "Marriage Bonds 1817 – 1820". Library of Virginia holds this microfilm in a collection it calls "Norfolk County Microfilms" under a subheading called "Marriage Records and Vital Statistics". 

The film is numbered "Reel 75" on the website but the box also states "Film #01000". 

I have a need to use hereinafter cited as in order to define much-shortened forms of certain source references. Most of the examples I have seen have been for the citation of legal cases, where the legal mode of reference is quite different from our genealogical style. However, in my case, it's to shorten the overall volume of citations, which is already overbearing. An elided form of the wording, as is normal for short-form citations, wouldn't reduce the volume to the level that I want.

I am not sure if this is correct. I am using aerial maps from 1958 that are on a city website. I have cited the collection (GIS & Data Services, Aerial Imagery & Ground Control Survey) as a chapter and the City of Lubbock as the title.

“GIS & Data Services, Aerial Imagery & Ground Control Survey,” City of Lubbock (http://www.ci.lubbock.tx.us/city-of-lubbock-home : accessed 31 May 2016), online images, “Historical Aerial Photography, 1958,” image 1958_185.TIF.

Am I missing anything?

I'm a little confused when to include the word "household" in census citations.

EE3 6.31 has this First Reference Note:

1910 U.S. census, New York County, New York, population schedule, Bronx Assembly District 33, precinct 19, p. 269 (stamped), enumeration district (ED) 38, sheet 6-A, dwelling 37, family 124, Jacob Sounheimer; NARA microfilm publication T624, roll 999.

When is it appropriate (or useful) to include "household"?  For example:

I'm working on a research report where the transcription of a document is three pages long.  

Do I cite the source on every page or just at the end of the transcript?  Do I use a full citation on every page or a subsequent/shorter source citation after the first one (if I should on every page)?  Do I again cite the source in the document analysis that follows the transcript?

A rather unusual question for this forum. I'm sure I've asked this before, but I cannot remember where.

I see a problem with EE being used as a "set of citation templates", rather than as a guide to evidence analysis and citation creation, and when combined with the software industry's pursuit of formulaic templates -- to the exclusion of layers, analytical notes, and "edge cases" -- then methodology is being lost at the expense of simplicity.
