New here. What is the correct way to cite this source I found on Ancestry.com at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/8797/images/42292_2221301551_2328-00017?pId=77074?

This is the text on the source tab there:

---BEGIN---

Description

Book Title: Index to Marriage Licenses and Certificates, VolĀ· 11, 1904 - 1906

Source Information

Ancestry.com. California, Marriage Records from Select Counties, 1850-1941 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc., 2014.

Original data:Marriage records, select counties and years. California State Archives, Sacramento, California.

---END---

Want to be sure I cite sources correctly. :) Thanks in advance!

I would cite it like this: 

"Index to Marriage Licenses and Certificates, VolĀ· 11, 1904 - 1906," database, Ancestry (www.ancestry.com : accessed 3 November 2020), entry for Charles L. Bates and Myrtle Bryan, 1905; citing Marriage records, select counties and years. California State Archives, Sacramento, California. [Book 33, Page 280, Marriage 8 Feb 1805] {{Ancestry Image|8797|42292_2221301551_2328-00017}}
