My sources and citations looks like that:
or that, a simple marriage citation:
But sometimes like this I want to detail parts of source record:
Above, these are citations of a french marriage certificate. I’ve separated it in multiple citations, to disociate confidence level between marriage record itself wich is formal, from witnesses names and their occupations which are declaratives, and another thing; in margin there is a divorce statement for which I want a separate citation too.
As you can see, I’ve make two parts in citation title separated by a pipe sign. I repeat marriage certificate information at the begining of each citation, the pipe sign, then I write what part of marriage record I cite thru that citation (divorce, groom’s father identity, …).
This is the divorce event where the divorce citation is used:
Finding citation, searching for divorce keyword, is pretty easy:
In your newspaper case, I’ll use 1 source and 2 citations (one by fact) labeled like this as their title (volume/page information):
- Source: Newspaper xyz
- Citation: John Doe Orbituary | John Doe: Orbituary
- Citation: John Doe Orbituary | Maria Romano: John Doe’s grandchild cited in John Doe Orbituary
Finding “John Doe Obituary” using citations search windows would be easy, then selecting one citation or the other to associate it to the event you are editing should be easy too.
