Citation Issues

Citation of loose page, source unknown, but one repository for the original known

I have photocopy of a loose page, handwritten, which I know from the description is from the records of Henry Ritchie who recorded cemetery information in Pictou County in the 1950s. I don't know where I got it from, probably a record searcher in the 1990s. I know that the Pictou Antigonish Regional Library (and other archives) has a copy of the original. I don't want to imply that I have seen the original but would like readers to know how to access it. Here is my attempt:

Photocopy of family tree from Nova Scotia Archives

I have a photocopy of an annotated family tree received years ago from Nova Scotia Archives, probably from them or a record searcher by mail. It consists of 5 pages taped together and laminated, possibly by me! Marked on the back in pencil, MG1 3296 no 6. The Nova Scotia Archives has details here: https://ns-archives.accesstomemory.net/jean-stewart-maclellan. Click on file list at the bottom for list of files. Here is my attempted citation:

Help with formulation a Birth Source Citation

On FS I found a birth source which takes me to a page that does not show the actual record.  The page provides the details:

Citing to New York State Appellate Division, Records & Briefs

Hello,

I am sorry to become a perennial nuisance on this forum, but I am having a great deal of difficulty figuring out how to accurately cite Records & Briefs from the New York State Appellate Division, which are contained within a published volume.

Another agency/author question

I'm trying to cite a government publication. On the title pages it states "Compiled Under the Direction of the Secretary of the Interior" and then names the compiler.  https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=coo.31924112812361&seq=7

I realize that we typically cite the agency as the author, but do we also cite the compiler when one is given?

 

Canadian "Directorate of Movements" collection - Citing the convoy records

I have the EE-book, ed. 3 (revised). I'm trying to decide what "style" of citation to use for the following case. I'm thinking that it lends itself to using something like the QuickCheck Model, Archived Manuscript Records (Series as lead element in Source List). If there is a more appropriate "style", I would appreciate hearing which one is recommended.

Situation:

Citing an ordination file for a minister?

My grandmother was an ordained minister. I contacted the church that ordained her, to see if they had any records they'd be willing to share - specifically her ordination certificate. They advised that they don't maintain copies of the actual certificates, but what they do maintain is a "Registration Form for Ministerial Office." A copy is below. I'm trying to figure out how to cite this. I did receive it as an image copy, but via e-mail from the church office.

Citing to Declassified F.B.I. Reports

Hello,

I am trying to figure out how to appropriately cite to declassified FBI reports that were obtained via FOIA.

The report's cover-sheet includes the following header:

The Report Info....

 

 To cite to pages 19-20 of this report, I came up with the below based upon the "Research Report, Privately Held" model template:

Alternate presentation formats for citation of general images and headshots?

While I would like to reference headshots and images that are not linked to "events" or "attributes", my software does not provide the ability to do so. This is likely a widespread issue and relevant to other genealogists and family historians, as the current GEDCOM 5.5.1 doesn't actually have provisions that support it. In short; many programs require an image to be attached to source via an event or attribute. They cannot handle citations attached directly to images. This is why census images and the like are not an issue, but headshots are a problem.

Church book images - target information vs book titles

I am working with images of church records found at Ancestry, and I am hoping for some feedback on my citation attempt.  The images are of church books in Norwegian, with several listed in one filmstrip.  All books in the filmstrip have targets starting with FIRST LUTHERAN CHURCH, NORTHWOOD, IOWA, but the books are from different congregations of the church.  The books have different sections for baptisms, confirmations, marriages, etc.  Here's what I have settled on:
