Citation Issues

Citing a photograph you personally took

Hello,

I am working on citing photographs that I have personal taken. The first bunch is primarily from cemeteries. My plan is to add the citation to the description of the photograph in my Ancestry tree. By adding the citation to the photograph anyone who links the photograph to their tree the citation goes with the photograph.

The following are two options I have come up with. The first is based EE 5.11. The second is based on Chicago Style.

Citation of a Newspaper Article from a FHL Film

I want to cite a newspaper article from a film from the Family History Library.  The film series is titled, "Annals of Savannah : 1850-1937, a digest and index of the newspaper record of events and opinions, abstracted from the files of the Savannah Morning News."  The particular film that I am citing is film #1613424, 1888, 1880-1890.  

Based on your conversation here:  https://www.evidenceexplained.com/content/newspaper-articles  I have worked out this citation.  

"Larcenies," Savannah Morning News, 16 September 1890, p. 8, col. 6; FHL microfilm 1613424.

Census online database - Census online images

I'm not understanding the difference between these two categories. For example: p. 270-72 provides examples for databases for HeritageQuest and Ancestry and the example for Digital images for Ancestry. To add to my confusion I have seen both HeritageQuest and Ancestry cited as "database and image" in the same citation. Add FamilySearch and Fold3 to the group providing census information and my brain acts like a GPS - always "recalculating." While the examples differ for the database and images, I'm not understanding why.

RE: QuickLesson 19 - Layered Citations / Penned Question

Dear Editor,

After our discusson on another question about Family Tree Maker, Templates vs Free Form, I went back to QuickLesson 19, to help me refresh my understanding of Layering. You layed out the layering very well, and I thank you.

In looking at QuickLesson 19, I was reminder of at least one place where I saw the Website Title show up.

Getting contact from someone at Evidence Explained

Forgive me for pasting my message here but I have been trying for days to contact whoever is in control at Evidenceexplained.com with no such luck.

I purchased a copy of the digital book but haven't received it yet after several days - can somebody please reply to one of my emails (check your spam folder).

 

Thank you,

Citation conundrum

Hello,

I have a series of  newspaper articles that were originally published in The Greenwich Journal and Fort Edward Advertiser (Greenwich, NY) between 1955-1958. There is a total of 86 articles. They were written by the Argyle Town Historian. I only have the clippings of these and not page and column information and there maybe some confussion on which actual newspaper they came from. I am working to sort that issue out. These articles were each given an article number ie. "article 51"
